Mark,
I happened to be at Heritage days, serving pasties at the Lions Club booth, when I looked up to see the black smoke puffing out of the chimney. It looked to me like tires were burning, just to re-create the effect.
By the way, for every picture you see on the Pasty Cam, there are several dozen which don't make it. I just looked in my folder for Heritage Days (last weekend in June) and spotted this picture of Sheriff Ron Lahti and fellow Lion Marv Manninen chatting with some guests who stopped by our refreshment stand. At that moment, if I had panned the camera slightly left, you would see the old smokestack.
