I was at a friend's house this evening, helping with some computer issues, when we heard what sounded like firecrackers going off. We're talking like after 10:30pm here. So I looked outside toward where the noise was coming from, and I saw fire. The neighbor's yard was on fire. Within a few seconds, one of my friends was outside with the hose, spraying down the neighboring yard, though not before a good 2x2 foot area was burned. The neighbor stepped outside shortly thereafter and was thankful for the assistance. We just generally couldn't believe what had happened, which we attributed to neighborhood kids. Personally I would have called the police to file a report, though that was not my call to make. I just feel like under different circumstances the house could have been damaged, so you need to track that sort of thing.
What a way to turn an otherwise uneventful day/evening into a bit of an adrenaline rush. Sheesh.
