Bush fires and Fire fighters

Into the gates of hell they strode !
I thought I would start with a discussion on the up and coming bushfire season. For which we should preparing , those that know me know that I come from a bush back ground, there fore have a understanding of nature, benefits and dangers of such. So we prepare for these events as best we can, as they will surely descend on us.

The thing that stands between us and these events are our fire fighter and their bravery. Risking their lives as they do every year , doing the impossible for us and often they them selves are voluntaries, just doing their civic duty as they see them selves. They place them selves in front of these great fires, making Herculean efforts to stop them , protect us and our property. I am preparing to start a series about their works and the fires themselves.
