The day after...

Ottsville

*Mini Challenge #365 – Abandoned

The stone is all that remains with some scrapes of this and that.

Amazing that the $2,000 of the $4,000 saved in the house to be used for bills, didn't burn in the dresser.

It was yesterday morning, before 6:30AM that my Aunt was ironing upstairs when my Uncle yelled that the living room was on fire. He had been asleep downstairs.

Thank God, both were able to get out safely, both in their bare feet watching their house burn before the fire trucks came later.

Thank you for your comments - Aunt Jean / Uncle Arnold went to live in Quakertown and later R.I.P. at the Lutheran Church near Feryl's home.

This is so sad, it was such a beautiful house, but most important they are safe.

Great images of a very sad moment. Again I am sorry for their loss.
