Fire hydrant ~ what's that??? We have ponds, lakes & streams. Fortunatell our fire & rescue finally went to a paid deparment. Up until this past summer it was all volunteer so you had to wait for personal to get to the fire station before they could roll out to respond. They were called basement savers up until the conversion.you know my insurance would go down if I had a pond . funny. No fire hydrants here, If mine caught they would ask permission of my neighbors pond . I dont know But I think they mostly let them burn. Insurance was $50.00 a month til I filed a claim. Had black mold. Robert was so sick. Even had the EPA out here testing the air.
