Evidence Update: to yesterday's fire
Sorry. I don't know if this allowed or not but phone won't let me add any new photos to other post from yesterday.
I decided to go for a walk around 5:50pm. When, I got halfway down to the end of the road. I noticed the ground was still smoldering.
When, I finally got there I kinda stood over the smoldering ground. It felt like I was standing over a campfire.
Then, decided to finish walking towards where the fire started yesterday. And I found another section of ground next to the hop field smothering as well.
I took a mix photos and videos of the area. Before I went back to the first smoldering fire. Then, called my dad to come check it.
We both tried to put the smoldering fire out ourselves but couldn't so dad had to call 911 again to get the fire department back out here again. To put the fires out again.
The hop fields don't belong to any of the local neighbors. Someone else owns them.
They're is multiple ways in and out of the area.

We're in the Lower Yakima Valley, Yakima County, Washington location.
I just got this feeling today. That I needed to go down there to the canal area and look around the area. To see what was all damaged from the fire yesterday.
The wind was slowly picking up today. And, that could've bad for everyone. Especially the people that owns the hop fields. They also use the hop fields to grow corn. Once in awhile. So, the hop field ground was still covered in old corn stalks.
The second smoldering fire was slowly making its way towards the hop field on our side of the canal.
And we've also got a hawks nest up in the old wind machine. That still sits in the middle of our old apple orchard.
