    Watched the neighbor on the other side of the field this morning burn down an old shed and almost burn down a garage in the process. Notice the melted siding hanging off the garage. What was he thinking? Burning shed.jpg

    At least the wind is in your favor, blowing away from you.

    My neighbor is the same way. He burned down his shed a couple years ago, nothing like burning shingles and treated lumber. He’s a mental midget, not worth the time of day.

    I came to the conclusion years ago, that if I’m asking “What were they thinking?”,
    They probably weren’t Thinking

    We have an idiot neighbor that accidentally burned his shed down from burning trash in a barrel. Firstly, its illegal in our county as of a few years ago. Secondly, it was in the middle of a dry spell with a burn ban. This dumb arse set boxes on top of the burning trash, in a nearly full barrel, and went in the house. They fell off into the grass whilst on fire. He ended burning up his side yard, shed and part of a neighbors hay field. All of a sudden he got garbage service like the rest of us already had. We heard he got a pretty healthy fine.

    no it's guys like him that causes our rates to keep going up.
    reminds me of my neighbor who set the woods on fire behind us with his burn pit.
