Rub a dub dub (fire in the hot tub)
Out in Montgomery County, which is sort of like a nicer version of Bucks County, some people have fancy enough houses to have outdoor hot tubs. That's good for them. However, sometimes things can go south quickly (emphasis mine):
Hot tub causes fire: An electrical fire Monday night caused by an outdoor hot tub resulted in damage to a backyard deck and the siding of a home on the 100 block of Sunrise Drive but was confined there.
Gerry Grover, the township's director of fire services, said the fire was called in at 1:06 a.m. Police, North Penn Fire Co. and the Volunteer Medical Service Corps of Lansdale assisted the Montgomery Township Fire Department at the scene.
Grover did not believe the home's occupants needed to seek shelter.
Wait. So they have to sleep outside? Near where the fire was? How do you people do things out there?

Yeah, yeah. It's a random photo. I should have cropped it closer. Pretend the King of Prussia Mall is behind them instead.

"a nicer version of Bucks County?"
I'd be offended by that comment if it weren't so darn true.

A. Bucks County is much nicer
B. This picture looks like a low budget kiddie pool. Take a ride out to Lower Makefield/Washington Crossing for some real luxury living.

I can't get over how much Montgomery Twp looks like Vail in that photo.
And their "director of fire services" (??) is sweet loveable Grover? That rocks!
