Grass Fire and upcoming events

We had a large grass fire a couple of miles from where I live yesterday. Burned one vacant house and came close to burning a double wide mobile home and some other houses. Fire departments from all across the area responded and fought the fire through the afternoon and into the night. Still some fires flaring up today. Likely that a cigarette thrown out of a vehicle caused the fire from what I was told this morning.

Had a very good men's breakfast at the First Baptist Church this morning with 13 men in attendance.

Next Saturday the FFA is having their annual breakfast at the school and on Sunday, February 24 we will be having FFA Recognition Day at our church with a lunch.
