How Not To Burn Brush  -  @ 701 (11:06:44 EDT)
Many thanks to neighbor Geoff, who from previous experience and trauma with blueberry fires-gone-bad, knew immediately that the distinct smell of burning brush was a bad sign and came immediately with John Deer and Bush Hog and started cutting a break between my wind-assisted brush fire-gone-bad and the pine forest behind the house. Also, thanks to the Yarmouth Fire Department for spending the better part of an otherwise perfectly decent Saturday afternoon at my house putting out the blaze. Needless to say, I won't be burning any more brush anytime soon. At least not until there's snow on the ground again : ) 

Here are some hastily-spliced-together high resolution panaramic photos of the 2-plus acre devastation:
