I rushed home to find a bit of a front about 800 metres from our property: bottom left of this photo the open paddock runs into our place.



The Helitacks were picking up from just down the road, this is as close as I want to be on the receiving end!





I'm currently at LaTrobe fire base, this will take quite a while to put out; especially the open cut coal mine on fire down here. The fire at my place and the one down here are suspected as being deliberately lit, along with a dozen of the others around the state.
