Fire is my worst nightmare. I have lost way too much from it in my life, thru no fault of my own. Lost was a barn in Kansas in the middle of the night in 1995 or so. Took the best pickup I ever owned with it, scorched the back of the 1066 but was able to get in it and save it. Then last year Valentine's day meth heads fried my Mom's old farm house. No insurance except liability, we lost over probably 1/4 million in antiques still in it along with all the old family photos and records. The trailer we live in now has come close to burning down after a lightning strike. We were on the way home from the feed store, when we walked in the door the smoke alarms were blaring. Smoke was rolling out of the closet door in our bedroom, which is where the water heater and pressure tank are. The lightning fried the wires to the pressure tank. The fire ext we keep in the house knocked the edge off the flames, the one out of the tractor finished the job. Another couple minutes wouldn't have had a house. B4 that I lived in a rental trailer that heat tape caught fire under it. Could smell smoke in it, but none outside. Pulled skirting and found the heat tape frying. I am going to check in to sprinklers. Until I tear the barn down, I can't get insurance. Even with insurance, you cannot replace all your photos, etc. DOUG
