Rainy days and Mondays......
It's raining, which is a very good thing, since the ninny behind us is burning brush.
It's common sense NOT to burn in the spring. A little warmth and a little wind and suddenly, everything laying on the ground has dried up and it tinder for any passing spark. Burning in this weather is just asking for a huge problem.
I can only hope that it pours while he is raining so that if the sparks get going they won't get a start anywhere else.
He's burning 50 feet from my house.
I'll have to be watching carefully.
Sigh.

You could turn your water sprinklers on to soak your land?
@Lovegrove - thanks, but we are talking more than an acre here....it's rural land, so no sprinkler system and the woodsline is within 20 feet of the house....fortunately, the rains came down hard and eliminated the problem. The rest of the week is to be warmer and dryer so I hope he burned all of his stuff last night....
Hey, you got acres? How come you got acres? I got no acres, why I got no acres?
Sounds like you and the neighbour aren't on speaking terms,because you need to share your concerns. If he says there's no danger, one thing you could ask is that if that is the case, why doesn't he put his giant tinder box next to his house rather than next to your land?
