Neighbors Garage Burned Down

**TCO** · 02-21-2011

So my mom called me tonight while I was at work to tell me that our neighbors garage burned down. There is nothing left. It was dark when I got home but I walked down towards it and there is nothing left at all. The crappy thing is they are in Florida right now. I am going to try to take a couple pictures of it tomorrow morning. There was a corvette in there that my neighbor had restored not too long ago.

Here is a video of it from the local news. All of the smoke came right towards our house. They filmed part of it in our driveway. You can see our mailbox right at the beginning of when they were filming out there haha.

That sucks, one of my cousins' neighbor's garage burned down a month or two ago, a bunch of magnesium transmission cases caught on fire, it was nuts. Scary sight, hits close to home.

No the news we have is when a guy shot another guy over weed then hid the chopped off shotgun in the snowbank thinking no one would find it. LOL he is now serving prison time!

*looks for corvette remains*

**TCO** · 02-22-2011

JoRow-no it wasn't connected. Its just a big workshop.

Mike-It was last night. It is out by wild water west.

ZR1- In the first picture, I think it is on the right side. You can't see it in the picture but I could see a burned shell of a car when I was by there.

I just saw what was left of the vette. They are cleaning everything out of there and it is just a shell. You can barely tell what it was. I might have to go out in a bit and try to snap a pic. You will probably cry though. Its toast
