Just a friendly reminder for those in colder climates. The grass is still dead and quite dry. It doesn't take much to start a brush fire. My neighbor set his grass on fire this noon. Winds gusting to 30 mph got it going fast. So be careful out there so you don't send off a spark and light up your whole place!!
If in doubt, wait until things green up.

I took a look and he bruned up at least 3 acres of prairie grass. There was a big fire in southern Iowa that threatened homes. Just something to keep in mind. I was lucky as the wind was blowing away from my place and I was home. I could have done something. Others may not be so lucky. ....
