[00:00:00] Randy: The security was blanketed from the

[00:00:04] Jody: tech. You know,

[00:00:06] Randy: you know that that’s the, just around that corner is where I went to that burning. Didn’t you go into that burning house with me? That was you and I. That place was burning. We went up to check and see if anybody was upstairs. And the stairs were on fire.

The stairs were on fire. The building was totally engulfed. And we went up into the top floor. Second floor, looked around, and, uh, We grabbed the guy’s desk. Nobody was up there. We grabbed his

[00:00:33] John: desk. Grabbed his desk and just figured we’d grab one thing and went on down with it. We figured it would have papers in it.

Then we also, uh, Pushed his car out of the garage on the street. Pushed the car out. In the place where the

[00:00:46] Randy: ground. the ground.

[00:00:48] Jody: And then, then you went back down the mower one time, and that was huge down. Yeah,

[00:00:52] Randy: that was pretty heavy duty. Okay. The scariest one I ever did was with Warners off in Saugus. Um.

Texas Canyon area. The fire went right over us.

[00:01:05] John: That fire up there, don’t you remember that? It was all around. We stayed at that house. We were on TV that time. They were taking people out by helicopter. And they said no, so they said okay.

[00:01:17] Jody: And they told him about the Boy Scouts. They still show that fire once in a while.

The Boy Scouts, like on TV, they said, The Boy Scouts are up here helping the slave houses for their good times. We were too, well, we were saving the house.

[00:01:30] John: The fireman said, well, if you’re going to stay, give us a hose.

[00:01:35] Randy: Houses were burning like you couldn’t believe it. Right in front of the

[00:01:39] John: grass, burning right around this guy’s house.

We were up on the roof. The homes had burned down. Randy and I and Bruce, right? Mm hmm. Bruce Nielsen. We were talking about houses. I suppose I stuck her down and by the time that guy came home, he had a home. The only home. He

[00:01:56] Jody: didn’t

[00:01:56] John: have anymore neighbors. He

[00:01:59] Jody: didn’t have anymore neighbors. So, we didn’t stay that night, though.

He had his home.

[00:02:05] Randy: We got a fire truck. We got an old pump truck up there on that one. Warner and I took it up where they wouldn’t take it into the fire and we took it in and saved this guy’s ass. When burning. And the fire blew right over it, went right over it. Well, didn’t you get

[00:02:22] Jody: into a pond while it went over?

[00:02:24] Randy: Yes, we went into a pond. And

[00:02:25] Jody: underwater? We

[00:02:26] Randy: got into the water. It blew right over us. I mean, it was moving. We could see it coming. We wet everything down and got, got ourselves into the pond.

[00:02:35] Jody: Randy took Dad and I for a ride after that older couple came out. When we saved the house just cried. They, they said we couldn’t.

We just had to start all over. We were just too old to start over and we couldn’t save the little thing because Guy had been here. It had a home because look around us. Were the only home here.

[00:02:55] Randy: and everything else, all the other homes, everything else burned. It was the only house we were at. And they were such a cute old coach.

Yeah,

[00:03:03] Jody: they were cute and they were, they

[00:03:04] Randy: always asked me to come back.

[00:03:06] Jody: They were old. They couldn’t. Yeah. That’s funny. You remember that,

[00:03:13] Randy: mom, but they’re, but they’re gonna be getting touched out there. That was one of the scariest ones I’d ever remember because the fire went right over us

[00:03:24] Jody: and

[00:03:24] Randy: we knew it was going to, that’s what was scary.

You know, we didn’t know what to smoke. Are you ready for

[00:03:29] Jody: Jody to open this deal?

[00:03:31] Randy: Yeah.

[00:03:33] John: Touchdown, BYU! We

[00:03:56] Jody: 17 to 17?

[00:03:58] Randy: I’ll bet they do.

[00:03:58] Jody: Is it going to be talking?

Uh, Percy Walker here. She had four legs and a ring, three of those in here, and that’s what it was. And she had a whole sheet of music going along like that, like rhythm, and then she had a score of music kind of like that.

I’ve always, different, I’ve always looked at one in, uh, Oh, in Superfect’s house. Across her mom’s place, in the place where they sit next to each other.
