I spoke with Dan tonite as he was leaving their house. They came this
morning to find it smoldering
in the wall. another 1/2 day unattended and it may have been charcoal.
The good news is
there is no fuel(plants) for the fire to return!
No word of the Beckers here, though I did hear 50 homes lost in Crest.
Thats a good bit of Crest!
Any thing of the Taylors or Purcells?
