FIRE

Fire. Never has there been found a more tantalizing and interesting tool to man. From burning things, to burning other things, fire is part of our every day lives. Find below the tale of one fire lit May 9th by several disgruntled teens. They held the fire in open protest, their voices where clear, their chants where heard-- "We want a big fire!!" In any event, find below pictures with a breif explanation. I pretend to have no computer skills, so, expect nothing fancy. Just photos of flame, and the flamers that love it.

To make this fire, members of the fire lighting committee gathered wood for everal days prior to the burning. Several local buisnesses donated pallets for us to burn, and, after four truck loads, we got all the wood to where we planned to burn it, an undisclosed location up an undisclosed canyon near an undisclosed city.

JL Hoopes and JY Harts trucks, full of pallets. These represented roughly half the pallets used.

The completed pile of pallets, note the people for size reference.

Ohhhhh. Fire.

Additional blaze.

More burning.

Whether cooking hot dogs or raining down on Charlie, fire is our friend.

More coals.

On this little venture, we also had a little excitment than we barganed for. After the fire was all done, cleaned up, and the EPA came and inspected, RTS rolled us Bronco on the way home. Due to a undermaintained road, the vehicle rolled three times off of an embankment, into a little ditch. It was not fun for any involved, and, as a wise man put it, the passangeres were just lucky to be alive.

To top it all off, Jeremy had a flat tire(the non-inebriating kind)
