Re: New Fire in SoWal -- Sommerset Beach - Seagrove

Once again, we can see the value of this board. Many of us began our addiction to SoWal.com during Ivan--when it was the only source of info. about the conditions before and after the storm. SoWal.com is still the best source of "breaking news" in the area. Thanks Kurt :clap_1: :love: .

I am so glad that everyone is o.k. Thanks to all the emergency crews for their hard work--they've had a busy few days.

So sorry for the loss of property.

That is terrible. Those houses in that neighborhood are mostly permanent residences.

Re: New Fire in SoWal -- Sommerset Beach - Seagrove

Not to be trite...but a tradegy like this shows someone like me, who does not live in the area, or have a home in the area, just how tight the family in the area is!!!:love:

I am hoping everyone is OK and unscathed personally. Of course I realize that something like this touches the whole community! No one person is totally unscathed :sosad:

Definitely! I've been out all day and am reading this thread as fast as I can; so sorry to hear of the loss of homes, but so thankful I'm not reading about any injuries or fatalities.

That is terrible. Those houses in that neighborhood are mostly permanent residences.

Although many of the homes on that street are permanent residences, I'm told that fortunately, all of the homes that burned were second homes. So although it's very sad and bad news for the owners, it could have been worse. I've heard that neighbors and workers in the area worked very hard to save homes close to the first house that burned down. They continuously were hosing down the house one empty lot away and probably saved this permanent residence.
