Title: Fire Photo At Donny Gross's
Post by: Henry on August 31, 2011, 11:31:50 AM

Fire was reported as a truck fire near a barn.  Looks like everything is gone.  I didn't have my camera with me when I got there, but the flames and black smoke were shooting straight up into the sky as well as a fir tree near the garage.  Looks like there may have been a vehicle in the barn also as well as a lawnmower close by.

It was actually a truck on fire in the barn.

The tree was ignited, but was put out just in time. A few wrinkles in the vinyl on the house--but definitely could have been much, much worse!

It's the photographer who didn't bother to make sure he had the name right! There is no excuse. Donny is counting his blessings now that has recovered from the shock.
