Fire on Greenbelt


 
One afternoon my neighbor pounded furiously on our door.  She was franticly yelling there was a fire in the greenbelt behind her house.  Luckily Doug was working from home.  He grabbed the hose and ran back there.  I called the fire department and stood out on the street waiting for them to come.  It took fifteen minutes because they couldn't find us! The fire was big and growing quickly, but luckily Doug was home.  He had the fire under control by the time the fire department arrived.  They assume some teenagers were back there smoking.  It's crazy how quickly fire can spread.  I'm surprised there haven't been more fires on the greenbelts with all that kindling back there.
