I'm really starting to hate a building fire.....

I sure hope that the damage was limited to only the cooking room. Curtis will have that rebuilt in record time, I'll bet.

:poorbaby: It's true..

Dang, that looks bad. :frown:

I hope so, too. They have so many antiques and collectibles in the back room it would be such a shame to lose that, too. I've known him for 30+ years and know he and Angie will get it done. :yay:

Great Job

Many thanks to all of the hands that helped...we were able to save 90 percent of the actual building. Everything in the back is ok, and the majority of the stuff in the kitchen/front walk in area is ok. Fire was contained to the cockloft above the kitchen.

Again, great job to the crews from the Valley, my Boys from 3 and 9, the boys from Leonardtown, and the crew from Hollywood. Quick, smart, tactics by all involved. Great Job!!!
