[QUOTE="SWRhodd, post: 2705683, member: 18227"] Yesterday I noticed some smoke up towards my in-laws property south of Mangum and was on my way to check it out and not even a mile down the road when my father-in-law called and said it was on the property. So I doubled back and got the sprayer filling so my father-in-law can come get while I loaded up the bulldozer. Got up there and tthere were fire trucks everywhere and from every volunteer fire department in a 40 mile radius. When we got there the county had 4 road graders go on our property to cut fire breaks. They did manage to get the fire out but about 80% of 400 acres of our property burnt up. But hopefully we get some rain this year to help it recover. But one of their hut got burnt up in the fire but all the feeders and other stands survived.
