Dozer Dances with Fire Sequel

[@danareynolds1976]

You guys are doing a heck of a great job. God bless you all

[@JD-ig5vr]

Thanks for the video, appreciate the help you provide, I used to be a vol fireman in the mid 1970,s. It is difficult to explain in "laymen terms" what it's like to fight fires. Your videos provide valuable insight to help others not in the fire svc to understand the dedication required to do the job of a fireman. THANKS AGAIN !! STAY SAFE !!

[@davidhaley7053]

It's crazy how dry it is. Thanks Brad

[@lewiemcneely9143]

That turf gets as dry as it is can smolder for ages, like the peat fires in Florida. And coal fires. Just smolder along and pop up anywhere at any time. You did good and I got a big chuckle about the gas can deal. You're getting to make up a little from freezing yourself now. Remain calm and have the best day you can have. A few years back a big fire was close to where we were working. Go home smelling like a BBQ every evening. GBWYall!

Hi Dave!!😀😀 Wow I can't believe how dry it is up there by you guys. Down here in central Wisconsin it's been so wet this summer that I don't know if I could even start a fire. Usually by this time of the year it's really dry here also. Glad to see they got it out. Surprised that you guys didn't bring out the D6 for cutting breaks. Take care my friend!!😀😀 Logger Al

Not sure I understand the reason for the fire, is it to clear brush while you are putting in the new forest roads ready for logging this winter? 🤔. Seriously though good work all you good people, look after each other out there. Thanks for helping, have a great day.
