As I pushed the publish button the notice came up that this is my 300th post!  Thanks everyone for sticking with me for that long!!!!  🙂
This challenge is a bit of a stretch for me. Â When I was about 4 or 5 I got into quite a bit of trouble when I set my doll bed on fire, then started to carry the flaming blanket to the bathroom to douse the flame in the sink because I knew that water put out fire. Â I don’t know HOW my mom found out about it, but she ran in, saw me starting towards the bathroom, and threw everything out the window. Â I think I also started a fire outside once, too.
But neither of those events could hold a candle to the time we came home from my friend, Wyla’s, wedding to find fire trucks at the end of our street.  We lived at the end of our street.  My friend Gary, a volunteer fireman, decided to pay us a visit that day, even though we were not home.  He climbed through a window to get in.  He was calmly sitting playing the piano when he smelled smoke.  It took him three misdials to finally reach the Portland Fire Department, but he saved our home.  I was finishing up the last of Wyla’s trousseau and we were almost late for the wedding.  In my haste to get to the wedding on time, I had left the iron plugged in my attic sewing room, and the faulty old wiring in either the iron or the house, sparked and caught the tons of patterns I had stored in the attic on fire.
With all that fascination with fire in my younger years, you would think that I could find ONE fire picture. Â And I did. Â ONE. Â And it’s blurry. Â I tried to sharpen it up, and it’s sort of pixellated. Â Sorry!!! Â This was a great place, though. Â The owners of this place are members of the Tulare County Historical Society, and they had their own museum specializing in old cars and old slot machines, and clocks. Â Of course old cars needed old gas.
Here’s one of his flaming hot cars!!!
I thought about getting V’s ghost flames on his Nova, but do you think they would show up for a picture? Â No – they were ghost flames. Â They didn’t even show up!!
I decided to display some HOT outfits that I found in Old Sacramento. Â Would that count???
Or maybe this outfit?
So I know that’s pushing it to come up with fire, but honestly it was the best I could do!!!
Here is a link to see other hot shots!
