    Crews knocked out the fire shortly after it was reported.

    The cause of the fire is under investigation.
    Hope Cowboy was sitting down when he got the news

    I was actually concerned that you were hanging upside down out your window to snap the picture.

    Lol at "Crews knocked out the fire". Crews were not involved at all, I watched it from beginning to end and it was the automated fire suppression system that put it out. You could tell immediately when the sprinklers turned on cause the flames disappeared and the smoke went from black to white. It was a good 5 minutes after the fire was out before the first fire truck arrived.

    Just trying to help you work on your balance. You could keep a small child entertained for a few minutes by letting them look at it on an iPad. They would be so confused when the picture was still upside down whenever they turned it over. Oh wait, I did that to myself.
