Nothing More Than A Huge Mistake
Kristopher first let two sparklers, one for him and the other for his mate, Mark. It was as though they were reliving their childhood, as they made tracers, drew patterns, and waved their sticks around in the air. They really had no clue that this was in actual fact going to be the source of Kristopher’s headache. Later, he recalled, “One of the little sparkies from mine and my friends’ sparkler made contact with the ground and made two small fires…”
The Lawn Went Up In Flames
The two definitely didn’t expect that things would get out of hand. Unfortunately, because Kristopher’s backyard was so dry, the small fire actually turned into a raging blaze. To their horror, the flames grew so fast that it even started approaching the neighbor’s yard. Kristopher said, “I ran as fast as I could to grab the garden hose and quickly started spraying down the fire. It was no use. It was spreading faster than I could spray it.”
