Fire on Iron Mountain


Fire on Iron Mountain 008
Originally uploaded by Jerod McPherson.
Yesterday, they burned a huge pile of brush on the other side of the property. This afternoon while we were working, the wind must have picked up some embers and the fire started into the forest on Iron Mountain. Within an hour it had crept up the hill and was threatening the house. The Volunteer Fire Department came to the scene and got to work. It was pretty quickly determined that the house was not in danger and that the fire could be controlled. However, at the time of this post, the fire has been burning for at least 10 hours and is still going. Check out the photo stream for more pictures of the fire near our house.
