Grass Fire! Finally persuaded Howard to burn all the bags of newspapers. He had his basement full. Didn’t count on wind & dryness & it burned about 2 acres of grass across the road. I fought it for 1/2 hr, dipping water out of Trailer Park Lake & my pool. Finally called 911 & fire dept was here in 5 min. They were returning from another grass fire.
Exhausted from carrying water. Had to call Hutchman’s & cancel dinner invitation tonight.
Ran hose across road & let it run too long – so no water.
Called Mary & she brought out some water. Thankful for that but I needed a hug too.
Royce here to clean & I didn’t get much else done. Everything piled up in my room.
