At about 11:00 at night I walked out there and didn't see any flame. Yesterday morning I woke up and it was flaming again. Soaked it down with a fire extinguisher again.

    This video is 🔥‼️. Just sitting here watching your video and thinking I should go split some wood. Maybe I need to rethink this.
    Don’t know about your area but we are so dry here, we haven’t had rain here in a very long time. I stated in my intro in an upcoming video that it’s dry as a popcorn fart here😂.
    I’m surprised that the saw started a fire.

    I'll be right over with the hotdogs. Nothing like a dog on a stick over a wood fire UMMM. It's pretty dry here in north central Pa also. Brother and I have been knocking down dead ash trees for fire wood over the past few days. Never give a fire much thought but I guess I'd better start paying more attention. Read reply below about 2005 fire. Ran the neighbor out, bought the land and house. Now that's a "land grab" strategy I never thought of. HMMM 🤔 Glad you caught it in time. Little boys with matches and chainsaws, it never ends well. I keep after you about safety protocol, well I guess I'm just going to have to make a trip over to Michigan and show you the right way to burn up a log deck. 😊

    Wow check that out, never had that happen to me either buddy. Just watched the video a few times around the 3.44 mark and noticed smoke coming up from the wood, maybe you had an ember already starting its way back then.
    Good job you caught it though. I wonder if that's why they call it firewood 🤣

The ashes sat in the firebox for over a week not burning and cooling before I cleaned the stove. There was still an ember that got out. It was quite exciting.
