Last Friday, March 11th, was pretty eventful for our neighbors living south of Bristow. With a grass fire starting nine miles south of town and burning close to three miles in horrible winds and very dry conditions, many or our neighbors were affected. I was fortunate enough to tag along with the Bristow Fire Department to capture a few images six miles south of Bristow. I will be the first to say that fire is one of my biggest fears, so having a front row seat to watch these guys work was pretty cool. Thank you so much to the Bristow Fire Department and it's volunteers, as well as, the surrounding community fire departments for helping fight this fire. There were some structures lost, but no homes to my knowledge. Our firefighters work long, exhausting hours battling these grass fires. The volunteers are a HUGE asset to the department and put in sometimes very long hours just to help out. It takes supplies like food and water to keep these guys going, and donations are always appreciated. If you would like to make a donation, please make your check out to the Firefighters Lady Auxiliary and drop it by the station. Thank you!
