LOCAL PEARLAND REALTOR WITNESSES GRASS FIRE FIRST HAND   Yikes, I was traveling home yesterday and noticed the news copters flying overhead. As I drove closer to MY HOME, they were very close above. So I decided to keep going to find out what was happening. As I drove closer I noticed a fire was going on and I could not tell where it was coming from. I turned into Canterbury Park and at the back of the subdivision, the large field was completly engulfed in flames. So I decided to keep driving closer and drove to the back of the subdivision where the fire trucks were connected to the fire hydrants. According to the news station, over 14 acres of the field were burned and 25 homes were evacuated. No one was hurt and no homes caught on fire.   www.MyPearlandRealtor.com www.MyPearlandMLS.co... 02/03/2009
