Two True Stories About Fires...Be Careful!


Our family pet, Java, who definitely could have gotten up on the stove in her younger days!

A lot of people have heard about "Sweetpea" the infamous dog who started a fire in UA by jumping on the stove, bumping the knobs, and turning on the stove! There was not a lot of damage, except smoke throughout the home. It was a lot of work to get the home cleaned. The moral of the story is to place child safety locks on your stove if you have pets who might be mischievous. I had never thought of that!

Another friend in Hilliard woke up to fire trucks outside her home. She works the night shift and was in her jammies at 2:00 in the afternoon. Someone had flicked a cigarette out of their car and set her mulch ablaze. Thankfully, someone called the fire department before it got out of control.

Have a wonderful rest of the week! Susan
