“Glorified Bonfire”

September 25, 2008 at 7:23 am | Posted in Uncategorized | 1 Comment

That’s what firefighters are calling the fire in far south Fort Worth, burning at a pallet company.

The good news: No injuries. The blaze isn’t threatening any homes or business, even the main buildings within the pallet company aren’t in danger of catching fire… The fire is contained to a large pile of wooden pallets in a remote area.

The bad news: Firefighters have quite a chore keeping this fire contained. They had to string fire hose for several blocks, and had a hard time getting enough water pressure to really douse the flames.

More bad news: The fire hoses are crossing Crowley street, so there are some road closures. That could affect traffic.

Even more bad news: no marshmallows to roast.

  1. Two memories from this blog:

    Working part time for Coca Cola during undergrad and having to stack all of those empty pallets.

    AND

    Roasting marshmallows at the Lake of the Ozarks.
