Perhaps the fire has cleared the way to the alley!!!! Anyone is welcome to join.
Look for my fire video posts from WSVN throughout the night. GREAT STUFF!!!
Look, you don't have to be in pictures or video if you don't want to. :) 10:00am is approaching quickly.
The roads are all open now, and the backfires worked perfectly. Wind is dying down. Can't wait to see what trash survived.
Is it still burning out there ?

We wanted to do a smouldering sawgrass ride, but it wasn't in the cards.
According to an unnamed source, yes you can enter from I- 75(alley).
This guy told me it was almost out, but they were thinking of lighting it back up again if the wind became favvorible.

Great guy who said it was almost out, "but we might relight it with the ping pong balls, so stay out if you know what is good for you."
