Too Close For Comfort

2008.02.03
First photo I took, I could feel the heat on my face through the window.

They seemed to be having a bit of trouble getting a hose to work

More fire trucks arrived. They were hooking up to the hydrant across the street.

They started putting water in through the front window and door.

The fire was already pretty hot and throughout the house in minutes.

About 1:30AM last night I woke up and thought, "It's hot in here, I think I'll turn down the furnace" Then I noticed flashing lights and noise outside and this is what I saw next door.
My neighbours made it out ok, a smoke detector saved their lives and they had to go out through a window. The house didn't fare too well and is a total loss.

More photos later when I go through them, these were taken through the window from my kitchen.
