Fire (mostly smoke)

| | Comments (1) |

At Brookside. Something about a golf-cart shack and the maintenance yard. Fuel burning. Hear its a good sight, going to check it out.

Updated: Last arc of firehose water was landing on the maintenance yard as I winded down from Lida to the NW corner of Brookside. Made it past the ever-skeptical vanguard of police to the ever-smiling presence that is Fire spoke Lisa Derderian who even volunteered to go into the smolder with my video camera to get a few seconds of footage.

It was apparently the place to be ... stadium CEO Darryl Dunn was there fretting over his scorched utility carts and Fire Chief Dennis Downs made it a C.H.A.O.S.-worthy moment (Chief Has Arrived On Scene).

Lisa just called to give the estimated damage: $250,000 to equipment et. al.; $150,000 property damage.
