So, I went out to do my steps and started smelling smoke..so I round the bend and I see a huge pile of brush burning onthe property of the people who live down the hill. It was starting to get a bit windy.I thought don't tell me they just left like that, but eventually I saw a truck up there by the pile. However, when imI was walking back I noticed the truck driving away..Granted it was smoldering and we are expecting heavy rain shortly..but still..not smart and probably not even legal I'm tempted to call the fire department honestly However, I guess the rain will put it out. I will be watching these people though. They don't have the best judgment, and would hate to see houses or even trees burning due to their carelessness.

That is terrible that a neighbor would be so careless to allow a brush fire on their property.

They were clearing land. It's done on a routine basis, but not driving away from it

That would be quite concerning. You do not want unattended fires.

Yeah, I am going to keep an eye on them. They probably won't be burning for awhile though .it will be too wet.

One of our neighbors caught the woods on fire a few years back. It was a rip roaring fire and we had several fire trucks come. He is always doing dumb and dangerous things.

Geez, that is what I am afraid of. They don't have the best judgment..and have really been a pain in the butt here. Their pond looks like a big mud puddle.

Aye.
They maybe are not playing with a full deck.
I hope the rain does put the fire out.

They wouldn't be doing it again.

You aren't ever supposed to leave a fire unattended. I mean the fire may have actually been out, but still the way it was smoldering something probably would be going on.

It's raining now. Besides the people who live there get home about 3 usually.
