Remember to always keep an eye on your Tiki Torch

Wow, that's horrible... In addition to not leaving them unattended, it's wise to keep at least one fire extinguisher nearby anytime you may be burning torches or a fire pit. I love Tiki, but things like this scare the hell out of me. I had my house catch fire years ago (not from a Tiki torch though). It's an awful thing to experience. Between that and the documentary about the Cocoanut Grove fire that I watched as a child, I'm probably a little hyper cautious...
