Add commentI could be wrong but I think
I could be wrong but I think that is one of the houses on Aspen where hefty firework noise comes from.
Glad no one was hurt
Hopefully if they rebuild they paint it a better color, people in that neighborhood must be color blind!
Aspen AVENUE
Is the proper name, NOT Aspen Lane.
Surreal.
It's weird seeing my house in the news like this. Seeing pictures of your childhood home go up in flames. I'm glad my parents and animals survived. My sister and I are away at school and can't come help unfortunately, but we appreciate all the support that the friends and others in the community have given us.
Its very sad.............
.... that bloggers take the opportunity to post negative comments at the expense of a family in crisis. Truly a sad commentary and a very poor reflection of personal character.....
I am grateful that this family is safe, sorry for their losses. The greater community and the public safety people involved have and will continue to support this family during a tough time.
Glad the house is insured...
I am so glad the house was insured and no one was injured. I live down the street and saw how well the fire department performed in this situation. They were still there until about noon on Sunday doing their jobs. I am glad to know the fire department is there to help, but I hope I never need your services. Good job!
Hope the family is able to get insurance straightened out quickly and a new house built. Good luck!
Concerned Citizen
I agree with Concerned Citizen, it is unfortunate that our "local" community members find "petty" comments to make. I am happy that the family is safe and akender, sorry you have to see how cruel some of our "community members" can be with their brash comments. They need to re-focus their negative energy. Give me a break! House color? ppsssshhhhh!
People will be people and make their comments...but.....
think about it... what is the source?
The Empire is the source and they know it.
They post articles that are open to the world for people to make comments and it turns into a free for all without an ounce of compassion to the many persons who may be suffering.
Nice neighbors also to take this unfortunate opportunity to make a behind the door comment about their paint and noise of fireworks. They just lost their home and belongings ya know?
sheesh....
Feel sorry for the family and the rude comments reallly people??
to the family that lost their home I am terribly sorry that you had to go through this very unfortunate event. my thoughts are with you. hopefully you will set up accounts for help if it is needed so the community can donate to your need.
to the jerks that make rude comments. Just remember karma sucks. hope it isn't your house next

Fireworks & Paint "CAN" Comments are Not Rude!
If there were fireworks in that garage, IT IS A RISK TO ANY RESPONDER!
If there were paint cans in that garage, IT IS A RISK TO ANY RESPONDER!
EXPLOSIONS! AND YES, I YELLED AT ALL OF YOU!
(Are chickens colorblind? What are the sales numbers for that color - probably not in the majority? Are those better comments for you color non-critical thinking commenters? Any questions? BECAUSE I could read that "glad no one was hurt" was thinking of their future.)
Please, READ THE IFS AGAIN THEN ORGANIZE YOUR GARAGE TO PREVENT EXPLOSION INJURIES TO RESPONDERS!
