There was a fire on the little peninsula down at Pine Flat Lake a couple of weekends ago. About eleven fire trucks came screaming up from Sanger and from Cal Fire. A couple of helicopters showed up too. Good thing was they had the lake water right there.

That is the best way to fight a fire.

The other night in Las Vegas, they had to run the fire hose over 1,000 feet, to reach a fire hydrant with enough water to fight the fire.
