All that remains of a tractor, once the barn it was in burned away. This gave us the duel fun of fighting a structure fire and vehicle fire at the same time.

Smoke? Yeah, we got smoke.

A four wheel drive brush truck is stationed downwind of the fire, where burning embers caused several spot fires in a hay field.
