I got my a** kicked. We cooked at the Woodburn Firrehouse Cookoff this last weekend and we lost to some all girls team.

The only good thing was I got to meet Fabman.

Thanks Don for driving 3 hours to the valley to the cookoff.

 

It was great to meet you too Brian. Next GTG has to be somewhere COOLER! Man it was hot there..........I thought I was going to have heat stroke before I got home! Just gotta fix that $%^* air conditioner.............

 

Don,
I thought you lived on the hot side of oregon? We are on the cool wet side.


Here is a link to the fire we worked the day before. Denied:1up! Software

 

Fire devastates Sublimity farm

some photo's from the fire.

 

God I hate fire! My heart goes out to the couple who suffered this fire. I almost lost my wife in a house fire back in 1973. That's a lot of the reason I've been in 2 different volunteer fire depts over the years. I've got a long time friend that lost a daughter in a house fire, and I lost 10 Indians in a warehouse fire. I think fire is the only thing that really scares the hell out of me..............Did they figure out what caused it?

 

I am starting my 27th year with Woodburn Fire District.

I don't know the cause of this fire. I have never saw a fire this big on a farm before. The buildings were steel beams not pole barns. It was about 5 total acres with 5 building destoryed.
