Fire - Face.

When my brother in law said we have a big job to do. A fire like this in WA is not the usual you have to have 4 PERMITS from 4 different bodies that has to be all sourced ahead of time. On the day you have to make 4 Phone calls to let them all know the fire is going ahead.

This started out as 6 piles of cut down trees spread out in the orchard then it grew to all the old wood on the property. 40 odd years of farming all being burnt Olive Trees, Peach, Lemon and very big Mulberry. We started 8 am finished well past 9 pm at night stoking the fire to get the wood all burnt

The fire could not be left over night unattended and There had to be a hose ready to go in case on the ground behind me. Happy to say the day went off with out a problem but some times I let the fire die down a bit before adding more wood as just beyond that fence brown dry grass. To say it was a hot day would be a total understatement look at the fence behind the flames.
