This time of year is notorious for bush fires in South West Queensland. The local volunteer fire brigade asked the boys if they could lend a hand, which was beneficial since this particular fire was near their project so it was good to help them out. This particular fire was north of Miles, QLD. There were bulldozers and a grader involves in making a fire break and also vehicles carrying water could drive alongside the fire to contain it.

Once these little conifers get hot enough they go up like rockets.
We started off after work about 6pm and finished up after the relief crew turned up at 3am. Crazy day.

| Michael looking pretty professional. The flames were so hot my face was burning. The work wagon towing the firefighting gear. She was really hot work! |

| Having fun. |
Just a few videos of the fires.
