You know, yesterday afternoon I was sitting up in my study at home,

had the window open such a beautiful day, and all of a sudden I thought,

man, somebody's cooking barbecue. You know when you get that smell and you just know the coals are getting

ready and it's, man that's good and but then as the time went on ago

That's not barbecue. That's trash somebody's burning trash

And then as I smelled it a little bit longer, I said,

that's not trash, that's a grass fire.

So I went out in my backyard and there's a big fire going on.

Because I live out in the canyon and the fire was coming up the canyon so K gets the phone and calls the fire department so we just got a call we're on our way

five trucks show up and the helicopters you know dropping stuff and like that and so about an hour

before the service I'm out with my hose watering all my precious fruit trees down and you know I finished that and then you know I'm nearly late to the

service and so I hop into my truck real quick and and the battery's dead. Now folks this is something you learned a long time ago it's a
