Today was the first day of burn season.
We thought this might be a way to make friends with our new neighbors.
First, we smoke them out.
Then we show them our new septic system.
Brand new. Never been used.
I think they'll be impressed.
Don't you?
I love the shade of green
we chose for the cover.
It blends well with the landscape.
Then we'd brag a little about our water meter.
We went with the industrial look .
We think it looks edgy.
What do you think?
We've only had a couple rains but things are really greening up.
Waiting for the neighbors to gather 'round.
Hello neighbors!
Come on out..
we know you're in there!
Alright, never mind with the smoke signals.
Fire that baby up!
Son2 waiting to meet some playmates.
That doesn't sound quite right.
Okay...who's watching the fire?
Um...guys...
the windows on the
Aloha are melting.
Nobody came out to play...
and we are very happy about that.
This was a test.
When we try to burn brush over
at our senior house,
the neighbors dial 911 before a
match ever hits the brush.
They sit on their porch and watch us.
Phone in hand , waiting for one wrong move.
I love our new neighborhood.
We didn't meet any neighbors today,
but we got to know them.
There were no calls to the fire dept.
No calls to environmental health.
They are the kind of neighbors we
were hoping for.
