Haunted

Just settling in with my cuppa down at the screen but had to make a detour to the Loo. Looking out the window I noticed at the bottom of my cul-de-sac lots of smoke coming from a house there. I called 911 and reported what I saw to the nice lady and she told me if I saw flames to call her back. I went back to complete my initial purpose and looking out the window saw orange flames pouring out the bottom floor window!! Back to 911 and she said she was sending responders. Wow--4 fire trucks, a rescue squad (no need for them, Thank the Lord). They have put out the flames and are now chopping up the roof. There is a heavy smokey odor to the neighborhood. This is so sad.
What would have happened to this house or my neighbors houses if we did not have this wonderful mechanism built into our infrastructure?
These responders are not thanked enough. Think of your local responders not only during the holidays but throughout the year. Why not drop by a cake, cookies, pre-made sandwiches, anything to show you appreciate their being there. We've done this and they have always been very appreciative.
