Big Fire!

[Labs4Me]

I apologize if I freaked out and insulted people. It was pretty crazy though being a couple buildings down and seeing all this going on. It's upsetting to see people standing there watching their home or business burn to the ground. They were just in shock and I just wasn't seeing any humor in it. I guess people deal with things in their own way.

Holy ####! All those buildings nestled together like that, I'm surprised the whole Island didn't go up.

So what happened? They think it started at Bowen's?

OMG!

I hadn't seen these. Look at the "images from scene"

Don't worry - it's upsetting to be sitting here at a computer hearing about it. I can't imagine actually seeing it.

I have to agree with that.....

Shouldn't you be monitoring your business and not this website?

I have no power at my business so it's closed.

As of 2:30 the only people being granted access to the Island were those picking up children from the Catholic School. Some others were being allowed on foot to check on properties. Cars werent being allowed passed the Marine Museum. The Lighthouse is pretty much gone as well as the restaurant and bar at Bowens and the condos/apartments to the right. Bowens Inn itself appeared alright. Several boats were damaged that were behind the Lighthouse and Bowens. Fire Trucks, Red Cross, Electric & Gas Company Trucks are all around.

That is a damn shame.

And because I'm a nagin, I'm sitting here wondering if I should take their advertising down.
