Another fire

Nancy and Lew Coates live with their cute little dog on the 200 Block of Fleetwood Street. A house two doors down burned, the house behind them burned along with the family inside. And most of the block in the 300 block burned. Nancy and Lew know all the people whose homes were destroyed. It’s heartbreaking.

If they leave home for a while they might come back to a burning house. If they stay they could wake up to a burning house.

The home just down the street from us burned and if not for fast and courageous work by Caln Police two lives could have been lost.

Betsy and I don’t stay away from home very long and when we are here we are on edge; constantly looking and listening.

I guess that’s why I am up at 3 am.
