I guess maybe they did not want to get mud on the house or something. Just does not make sense to me
Boy i don’t know anything about this stuff.
I just wonder if the owners ever thought of that.

But when I went to a house in PA regularly, I never even considered something like that.
Boy those were the woods in Saw Creek in PA.
I wonder how they would have put out a fire there.
