Or a wrench striking a nut...dont know yet.
At least the buffalo about a mile down the road knew how to survive,
they just huddled together & let the fire burn around them.
Pretty damn smart them buffalos... : )

A wrench did not strike a nut that emitted a spark that ignited that fire. That is a bunch of BS I am not buying. I believe you that is what the media is selling or the guys are selling but I ain't buying that.

I wonder if Germany has Walmart stores.

They use to have 80 some odd stores in Germany, but not any longer. Believe they were bought out or something...

Thats the explanation from the fire department.
Winds were blowing about 25 mph that day.
That brush around that area was super dry.

Scored some Eagles tix for October at the new Orlando Amway Center. One of my all-time fav bands that I never had chance to see. Stoked!!

Anyone check out the meteor showers? I took my kids out and we saw 6 in the span of one hour. Pretty cool.
Just walked out and stood by the garage looking up. If the mosquitoes weren't so bad I would have set up lawn chairs and watched awhile longer.

That was pretty cool. Long way away from the ting ting ting of the sledge hammer and the two guys on the see-saw train cart thing in the old west. :)
