UPDATE ON BRUSH FIRES

Yeah they just announced it has been contained 5300 acres burned only 2
structures damaged by fires. Came close to a propane factory and lumber
yard.
They suspect arson or an idiot throwing out a cigarette of a car window.
May they taste dirty cat litter for the rest of their lives

20,000 acres since the beginning of this year lost to forest fires here in
Florida so far
