as always, great photos and fire coverage. I’ve driven by this home several times. It’s a beautiful home and glad they were able to save most of the structure.
Nice pictures. It’s a shame. I grew up in that house from when I was 10. This was my best friends house. A lot of memories. Glad it wasn’t a total loss. Good job ConFire!! Thanks for sharing Mike & Nate.
