At this time of the year everybody
should take time to plow their fire
guards for their is great danger of a
fire coming in at any time now and
it would clean everybody out if they
are unprotected by tire guards. Be
sides it is more pleasant to plow the
guards when you don,t see the fire
coming then to wait until you do.
Then you can take your time and do
it right, since you will not need to
hurry so much.
