Brackettville Burn Ban


This is WHAT HAPPENED the other night when a local rancher decided the burn ban in Kinney County didn't apply to him.

Only that narrow, two lane road separated an out of control grass fire from a working farm on the other side of the road. It's been ages since we had any measurable rain. A fire like this could have been devastating. Brackettville is lucky to have a volunteer fire department.
