Thanks Carl, I figured I would give the height adjustment a shot and it seemed to be the issue.  I went to ~.15mm instead of .2mm and I seem to be getting much better prints now. I will keep an eye out to see if its burning anymore, but I am assuming that the filament was curling up and hitting the extruder for a period of time causing the burning.

I bought a set of feeler gauges and adjusted my print head to be .2mm above the bed manually. Attached is what my sample prints look like but I have seen this before as well. Is this because of it being too high? If so what distance have you guys had success with?
