Burning down Lancaster county was the only real brush with catastrophe. Don't ever plan a charcoal burn on days when gusts exceed 40-50 MPH and surrounded by tinder dry prairie grass. Thankfully I had 4 5Gal buckets of water on hand, or I'd have lost everything...same with my neighbors. I needed every last drop, too.
I demonstrated a serious lack of sound judgement...should have reviewed the forecast more carefully that winds were supposed to TRIPLE by afternoon. Sorta funny to talk about now, but not entirely. Too fresh.
