    Jason I drove up to the shop to visit with Bob on Thursday morning only to find the shop gone. I'm still in a bit of shock. Sad stuff & another huge loss to the local LBC community.

    its terrible. I hate to send out info like that. Susan asked me to send it out. I am not sure if I want to see the place. I did a walk through at the picnic just to remember the good old days. Its just sad. I don't go up there much since Eric, it feels a little weird. it will not be the same without that building

    I didn't go up there much after Eric's passing. Every time I did I was filled with sadness. Guess it was missing all the good times I had hanging around with my friend Eric at his shops. Don't know what prompted me to go up there Thursday morning. Maybe I was meant to be there.

    I wasn't going to say anything about this, but since Susan has I guess it is OK to.

    Saw some pictures of the aftermath. I'm sorry to see this happen.

    Sadly, finance. The most boring job in the world.

    What all this comes down to is, it was stuff that burned, stuff can be replaced. Incredibly sad about the losses, but fortunately no one got hurt.

    Exactly...

    I'd written off this season months ago (Amy and are starting a software company and I'm honestly too slammed to take the time to install the power plant anyway), so what's a bit more of a delay?
