Hot Season in my home town......fires galore....
« on: November 15, 2009, 06:43:11 AM »
A few weeks back we were in our hottest season to date and of course the bushfires were lighting up around our state. We have a huge mountain range next to our town which due to some scum bags and the tinder dry bush went up. It went on for about a week and came VERY close to a lot of homes but only one was lost........

Removing the human element from the fires, the pics are very impressive.   Obviously not a good situation to have, and in this case it was fortunate that only 1 house was lost, but isn't  it a shame that the majority of these events are caused buy stupid people. Dry seasons should mean to people, have more common sense, don't have campfires, don't throw cigarettes out the window, and like my moronic neighboors, don't light fireworks off, when there are burning bans in effect

Daggone, hope everyone on your end is safe. I would take the fingers off every daggone firebug that costs people's lives.
