Got woke up at 330am to the smell of house fire being drawn in by my whole house smell was VERY strong. Grabbed shoes and light with phone in hand and started searching. Smell was really strong outside. Went and checked all my property while looking over fence found NOTHING. Never heard any fire trucks so went back to bed got heart pumping to hard spleen was not happy. This is second time in about a week this has happened.As former firefighter/emt gets me moving FIRE is not to be ignored have already had one arson fire this summer a block from me.

Some times it better to know than to guess. Nothing is safe when it comes to fire.

@tntrecycling Trust me hose is always charged and ready. Had one years ago at the garage behind me they used jerry curl and lighter by time hero's got here had area soaked to mud and was still adding water. Seen to many homes during and after a fire to even consider not reacting fast. Granted some of homes may be a little slower calling in back up couple may even have to get marshmallow poles out first.

Should of seen the house I was in yesterday. Needed to be a fire. All I can say was nasty. Wife had to view from out side or there would of been more of a mess. Fridge had a few to many items left in it.

Now you need to build a water tower slash windmill to pump your batteries and pump your rain water up to your water tower. Sprinkler system for the whole yard and property.
