This is the south-west corner of our house. The second pic shows a closeup of a hole cut by the fire fighters. Note the charred wood.
This shows the center of the south wall. This is also where the fire fighters punched through to the drywall inside. You can see the condenser nearby. The pic on the right shows the Cable TV wire going into the family room.
This is the southeast corner. You can see more of the descimated flower bed, smoke damage, and a lovely scene of the burnt siding.
The photo on the left is a closeup of the piping for our 2 year-old central air conditioning condenser. The initial estimate is ~$600 for repairs. If it needs to be replaced it will be $2000. The hunk of melted plastic on the right is the phone box.
This lovely pile of burnt siding is our newest addition to the side of the house. The second pic shows a corner perspective of the damage.
These bushes are on the front of our house and were lush and full. Note the center of them is gutted. We don't know if the fire will kill this dogwood tree or not, as the fire only burnt it at the base.
The bare stripped stick in the middle of this picture was a lush holly bush, all ready for the Christmas season. The bare ground on the right is where my 8 beautiful rose bushes were.
Smoke damage and warping on the siding.
Two perspectives of the infamous lawn mower. Very little damage to it is apparent.
The only noticable damage to the lawn mower is this melted cable. The rake on the other hand...
This is Charlie's temporary patch job to the two spots where the fire fighters poked through the walls.
