TOPIC: #seabuddy, Boardwalk Fire

#seabuddy, Boardwalk Fire 11 years 2 months ago #83634

Those that know me, know that #seabuddy worked at his dad's businesses on the board walk from age 8 to age 21. Dad has passed, so those businesses are out of the family now. Those buildings all burned down 9.12.2013. Similar to the fire that was in the same area in spring, 1955.
We lost the family's businesses then. I and my sister were shipped off to my mom's sisters that summer, so my parents could rebuild.

Sad, Must be hard to watch it even though you have no business interest in it now. It must have been like a blowtorch.
