We’ve got at least one fire truck in the area and guys with flashlights looking for something. Two just went into our basement saying something about a boiler, an old gas line, and my building’s “heck of a chimney.”
Wonder what’s going on?
ETA: Well, it looks like the trucks and ambulances are gone, but there are still guys with flashlights talking about the boiler. Oh, sounds like someone smelled wood smoke, saw steam coming out of our building, and thought the building was on fire. Now they’re discussing bringing “the gas guy” out. Hmm, “something’s going on,” someone’s said…
ETA2: Not sure why it took them so long to come over here if this is where they thought the fire was – all the vehicles were at the end of the block at first.
ETA3: That seems to be that – apparently nothing that needed following up on. Back to sleep for me!
Oh man, pack the cats and get out of there – I wouldn’t be waiting around to find out!!
I almost did get the cats ready to flee when they decided to check out our basement, but I assume they’d have evacuated us first and investigated second if it’d been serious…
Oh, and were they hot firemen? I can’t resist a man in uniform…
Haha, I don’t know – I could only see flashlights and hear them talking. But I’ll pretend they were!
