Sunday Afternoon Adventure

Dustin and I were leaving our apartment to run some errands and noticed something that looked like smoke or dust coming out of the dumpster. We walked over to it and it was smoke for sure! We called the property manager while our neighbor called the front office and got a hold of maintenance. Another neighbor called 9-1-1 and soon enough a fire truck came and had gas masks on, sprayed water from the truck, and then eventually had to hook the hose up to the fire hydrant because the smoke just wouldn't stop. They got the fire out safely! It was fun to see the fire fighters in action!

Scary squirrels that were used to people so much they came a little too close for comfort.
