Fire, when used for its proper intent is wonderful. Fire place, BBQ, beach fire or my logging fires. But how can people deliberately set fires that will cause not only expensive damage but destroy memories and life styles. Cause death and distress? Last night I watched my fire burn and as the wind kicked up and sent the embers scurrying in the air I was a bit afraid it would spread. But we are still wet from the recent rain and it was a long way from anywhere it could damage. But still it would be terrible to be in the smoke and heat of an unfriendly fire. Not to mention the toxins that are in the air. We are told not to burn plastic. The houses that have burned over the past week or so have mattresses and couches and ash felt and well, all kinds of toxins. Where are they now? In the air. My kids are there but are safe. Hope yours are safe too.
