    Had not thought of that angle. Thank you for the idea. I have a son and a good friend that make a living as an artist. Pictures have been sent to see if either are interested. Sometimes we cannot see the forest because of the trees.

    There was tons of tin, barb wire, and wood left from the fire. The cost to haul this was not worth the effort so a trench was dug out of an old silage pit to bury the light weight metal and burn the wood. This was the owners decision based on my hourly wage and their return on investment. Yes, to fight a fire, a fire will be built.







    This is how it looks today.

    A picture of the pasture shown burning at the start of the thread.



    Nature heals itself. A close up picture less than two weeks after the fire. Time is of the essence because the grass is already eight inches tall in some areas making it hard to find debris. The car seen in the previous post is on your right.
