it looks like they've got a controlled burn going down around Road F and just south of my house, which would put it between Highway 71 and about 175 or 17.

It's putting up a pretty good cloud of smoke.
03:11
Go check that.
03:12
I just heard from Lauer that they're burning a field south of the river Gardner is.
03:20
That's probably another plume of smoke.
