Default House Burnt Down Behind My House

Today, wife and i were walking out the door about the fire up the XR, and saw a buttload of smoke belowing up, from a couldersac? behind our house.

So went and grabbed the camera, and drove around the corner as all the windows in this A frame house exploded. The heat pouring out of this blaze was quite surprising, ironically the guy who lived in the house had gone to town to pay his rent : .

The neighbor next to him was hosing his place down to stop the flames that were hitting it, till the fire brigade turned up, he went inside and his digital thermometer said 79 degrees peak temp !!!!

So luckily no one was hurt, but unfortunatly nothing was saved from the house, and it was the only house damaged.

Congrats to the local firey boys, they did a great job getting it under control before it spread. Very VERY sobering and has made me be more concious about turning stuff off and what not before i leave my house it:

Heres a few pics.
