We had a big valley fire, Tiny Russian Village (TRV)…

Fire, steady breeze and dry grass? Makes a bad combination and we had to slow down the grass fire until help could get there.  For once it would hit the forest, then all is lost at that point. Thus you do what you can and hope on a wing and a prayer…

Fire Department came when Father Pavel and I gave out and saved the day. That is God’s Blessing…

Me…

More images and videos coming…

Too damn tired…

Yippee and out from the smoke comes help…

Father Pavel and I and in background, Fire Inspector…

We were running out of steam and so glad to see the fire trucks…

We let the river deal with the West side. Water our friend…

Came out of the smoke and like our guardian angels…

That truck is awesome…

Took exactly one hour for department to show up. Normal response time and why we do what we can to slow it down. We live way way way out in the boonies…

Inspector for fire department came. Asked questions, already had some ideas as who did it and hunting for the culprits…

Father Pavel work very hard and we tried our best. Nothing beats good ole water…

Nuff said…

Svetochka took an after video. We barely stopped it to catching tree lines on fire. Left or right would have been very very bad…
