Yo Ed,
Read in the paper this morning that a WM office in Falls burned down to the ground. I got concerned....

Hey buddy ;)

Actually that was the office that Bob (my brother) worked in. He's fine. He was outside at the time the fire broke out, THANK GOD.

He said a WM employee hired a company to do some work on a roof, (apparently he/she went "the cheap route"...the two guys showed up in a beat up Chevy van with one of those magnetic signs on the doors.) and while using torches to remove some shingles, the roof beneath ignited. The building was over 100 yrs. old, so that contributed.

Everyone got out OK. WE went to see the "remains" last night. :(

Whew. Nice to hear you both are okay. Thanks for the quick reply.


So I guess Bob is going to be a little behind in his paper work this week....

my father in law did a bunch of work there a couple years back, and he sub'ed out the siding work to a group that does roofing too. when i heard it was roofers, i called him immediately, but lucky for us it wasnt our group. glad to hear everyone is ok. father in law just submitted a bid for renovations there too........ time for a new bid i guess.

Dam, I saw that burning from the jury room in Trenton yesterday. I was talking to the other jury members and noticed a sudden steady stream of dark smoke coming from over in PA. At first I thought it was Ron testing out his linelock! :D

Well the work will be easier since there's nothing to worry about getting damage...


........ At first I thought it was Ron testing out his linelock! hahahahhaa... not yet. June looks good for the install. I'll make sure I get photos of burning down the old DR's so I can mount the new ones from xmas on. :D
