Thanks for the comment, GFD did a great job protecting the exposures on this fire. I will keep them coming just as long as Gary has fires!

Fuckin A.. I wish we had cameras on some of our structure fires :(

Hit the nail right on the head Ralph, protecting his Firefighters. We now have a mutual understanding. All is good again

It's more that I know what was wrong and he doesn't hate me for other reasons. Now I am just down to one and that will never change.
