Allways be prepaired to leave and have a place to go. Just don't expect fire fighters to save your home in those condisions. They can only do so much fighting fires. Do what you can to save the place but don't lose your life in the process. If you do not know what you are doing leave or get trained. I would have lost my place if I did not fight it. 9 people around me went to town and left us to fight the fires and lost there homes. We could have used more help with the fire. I stayed at my place till it got to hot then went to the safe zone allready picked out and came back in after the bad flames were past my house and put out the spot fires. You need to be prepaired for fires and some places because of other property next to it can't be saved. Know your limints and do what you can. I also had insurance in case I did not stop the fire but I put a lot of work into my place and had over 100 animals also to deal with. Did not lose one of them and only 35 of my 40 acres burned but I saved all of the buildings and the areas around them with hard work. I am even better prepaired now but I also designed my place so I could protect it and keep up with the brush and tall grass too. Living in a bad area for fires you need to do something other than put your head in the sand and hope for the best. Mark H. Dist #8 Wildland Fire Fighter
