Barn Burner

On March 23, my neighbor came running over telling me our hay barn was on fire.  I told her, I did not think so, I have been smelling smoke all day because the farmers were just burning ditches.  She said no, you need to call 911.  I ran outside and this is what I saw.  I hurried and call the fire department and before long we had 3 fire engines, and ambulance and several police cars here.  They block the road off both directions because not much excitement goes on in Warren and everyone wanted to see what was going on.  Thanks to awesome neighbors we were able to get the horse out and everything was just fine.  We lost a lot of hay but that can easily be replaced.  Luckily we had great insurance on our hay barn that we are going to rebuild and Christopher is really hoping to put in an outdoor arena.

That is so crazy. Those pictures make it look like it's right next to your barn. Glad it will work out ok.
