Fire missed us by 1/8th of a mile

Idaho is definitely on fire this year. This is the closest we've ever come. The choppers were so close we could feel the water dripping from their buckets. God bless the fire fighters. They stayed right between the fire and our house. They were pounding it with everything they had. Two drop planes, two choppers, 150 firefighters. Looks like it has passed us but is still burning. As far as I'm concerned these guys have a pass straight to heaven. Almost had to move the Power Giant. Glad I had the water tank on it.
