Sitting here this evening listening to all the FD sirens responding to grass fires around Granbury.
SO hot and dry...burn ban in Hood County but NO restrictions on fireworks? HOT topic, pun intended, on Hood County Breaking News...missed the June 15th deadline for conditions so NO fireworks restrictions!
We don't live in the city limits so the ordinance on possessing or using fireworks does not pertain to our home area.
More sirens just now...brings back memories when we had our small ranch north of Granbury off 51...all the neighbors and I were on patrol to keep the "city folks" from pulling on our properties and setting off their purchases.
We all had a lot to lose....livestock not to mention our homes and barns. But they still came....
I'm the LAST person to want more laws and restrictions...but when it's this hot with dry pastures and past experience seeing what fire can do...I'm going aggressive now....time to stop as "You Can't fix STUPID, particularly when you don't have a SINGLE acre at risk!" Enough is Enough Folks!!
