Dennis is walking to the fire now. I will not wait up for his report. It is 11:00 pm, well past bedtime, even a fire this close can not have power over my bedtime! I would rather it have been a bear on the deck, but we do not get to choose, do we.
Fire brigade dousing it now, Water sizzling. Sparks no longer flying, Good thing it rained so heartily today!
Good Lord! What happened?! Looks like some kind of explosion.
ReplyDeleteWe are not sure yet how that happened but it was certainly BIG!!!
DeleteWow!
ReplyDeleteYES! WOW, what a way to wake up.
DeleteWow! That is quite a fire. Hope everyone got out okay.
ReplyDeleteNo person was injured, A few cars ignited though.
Deleteamazing how fast things can go up in flames. reminds me of a neighbor's house on fire when I was a teenager. big house at the end of our short private road, was totally engulfed in flames. the couple who lived there were out to dinner when it happened.
ReplyDeleteMy first thought about your big house at the end of the road was "good timimg for being out" but had they been home maybe they would have noticed smoke and the house would not have burned to the ground. Never know.
DeleteYikes -- that's terrible. And fast. And huge. Please fill us in on the details when you know more.
ReplyDeleteOMG! Thank goodness for the rain!
ReplyDeleteNone of the trees caught fire!
DeleteYes to the rain.

Terrible to see something that awful so close to your own home too. I'm glad they got out, but where will they go now?
