I understand your well based fear of fire after what you have personally experienced. I lived for 54 years in So. Calif & the San Fernando Valley I grew up in, it was normal to have ALL the surrounding mountains on fire. Never got down out of the mountains though. One house we owned I came home early to water down my wood roof because the fire was on the hill right in back of our home & watched the fire helicopters fly right over.
Last home was far from any fire danger but the smoke landed my in the hospital for 10 days & everything tasted & smelled like smoke for months. Think it was still inside my sinuses.
I have 2 huge burn piles in my front field from all the clearing I had done behind my house & up to my woods. I told the guys they were going to have to come back & burn the brush because I DON'T DO FIRES.
When I first moved here a neighbor did a burn pile near my woods. I called the FD 2 times to check on it. I get the fear you experience. You handled it very well this time. Good job keeping it in your logical mind
