I'll go ...

There was a tractor parked beside it, and an above-ground propane tank out behind it. Told me they'd be back at dawn to see how we did. Then they left. Red, it's standard procedure for me ...

I could feel the heat on my back, but we seemed far enough way from the main fire to be out of danger for now. 8220;Need a ride, Mister? 8221; I said. “I just d...8220;Th...
