Our Family Farm Tragedy


You may be wondering what in the world this is a picture of. This is my husband's family
farm in Spanish Fork, UT. Yesterday morning at 4:30, my in-laws woke up to a window
scene of blazing flames and a bunch of explosions. Apparently, some arsonists (aka A-Holes)
decided to pour gasoline around their haybarn and inside their vehicles. They lost a ton of
stuff including: well.....all of their hay (800 tons), a motor home, all of their 4 wheelers, a jeep,
a service truck, a loader, and many other things. There were 7 different city fire
departments there as well as every news station. It took until 7:00 at night to move all of the
hay into another field. This morning, they encountered 3 more fires in the field because the
hay was smoldering. Their expecting this to continue throughout the week. To see more on
