Another McMansion burns... oh well, I am sure those developers would build another one on the same spot within a month (if it had been beyond repair)...

Cheap particle-board, trusses everywhere... be safe out there with all this "engineered lumber"... designed to hold substantial weight, but not under fire loads. Firefighter killers!!!

Great pics. Thanks.

Can anyone shed some light on the apparatus placement? I was wondering why there were 2 engines in the driveway.

Thanks and be safe,

JR

Both are in that picture (look behind Broas), but since it was a fire in LaGrange, I would assume that 47-2 was Command, not 56-1... ;)

Huh? I know who everyone is, and why they were there, I was just correcting a statement that was made.

as usual nice photos Bill. I also like that you captured the other side of a fire by showing the homeowner and their dog reuniting, nicely done.
