Fires on the show

ok I was thinking the other day and trying to remember how many fires there were during the whole series. Feel free to add any that I forgot:

we all can't forget the dreadful blind school fire

the Garvey's barn burned down ( twice actually right??)

Charles' father's house

the older man's (name??) shack in Gold Country

the fire that Mary's glasses started

the ape Blanche saved Rose from a fire

any others? What was Michael Landon thinking? Pyromania

A few others:

- In Plague, they burn the shed containing the cornmeal.
- In The Award, a fire starts when Mary knocks over a lantern after falling asleep studying in the barn.
- In part I of I'll Be Waving As You Drive Away, a fire starts after Mary knocks over a lantern trying to see better (what is it with Mary and lanterns)?
- In Be My Friend, the Mears cabin burns after Anna's father knocks over a lantern (I'm sensing a theme here).

Another one: In There's No Place Like Home, the saloon in Winoka burns after the Standish boy and one of his buddies set off fireworks upstairs.

He seemed to have a fascination with fire and blindness to some degree.

I *think* in, "Be My Friend", the father started the fire on purpose, he didn't want to live anymore after his daughter disobeyed him.

In the Pilot Movie, the prairie catches fire while Pa and Ma were building the cabin.

Willie started a fire with the fireworks stored in the Oleson's storage room on the store.

Carl Sanders starts a fire in the barn with fireworks, gets grounded from going on the 'field trip' to see the trains, but then gets to go, in "The Runaway Caboose".

In "Gambini the Great" the pile of hay is set on fire for the trick, but gets out of control.

Wow! I completly forgot about the extras. I definatley noticed a trend with fires. Didnt Mary start a fire in the kitchen trying to cook when she went blind?
