As I'm an early bird, I saw it and called the firemen. It took them over 30 minutes to find us... The dispatcher had taken the address wrong... Another neighbor had stopped the fire by then, but imagine that for your kitchen...<BR/>If I were sure you'd organize the same lunch for my next birthday, I think I'll start riding bike at once :-) <BR/>And do you realize you had bikers AND firemen on the same week? How is your husband dealing with that :-)verobirdiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12968111905760607177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24975998.post-16666448613906848492008-10-03T10:36:00.000-05:002008-10-03T10:36:00.000-05:00part 1 - What a fabulous group you gals are!

I lost my home and our two kitties at the time to a fire in 1999, so your tale is doubly scary to me! So glad all ended well and pray that the cleanup goes quickly for you. <BR/>Blessings,<BR/>LisaLisa Bonihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16954398440820019953noreply@blogger.com
