Fire and Ice

As so often happens in one of the coldest nights, a fire broke out in a 12-plex.Thankfully no one was hurt but 12 families were displaced.

There are a couple of lessons to learn from it: 1)don't multi-task while you are fixing dinner; 2)make sure you have renters' insurance; and 3)have a plan of escape.

Ironically, though the fire occurred last week, there is still the piercing sound of a smoke alarm going off in the building. Imagine fighting this in below zero temps.

Our place shows a bit of snow that we have gotten. We need to use caution when backing out because you can't see the oncoming traffic.
