Lightning Strikes

Around 4pm on August 28, 2007 our home was struck by lightning. The attic area of the house caught fire and firefighters were able to put out the flames before it spread lower into the main areas. Here are some photos:

This first photo is the front of the house. You can see the fire damaged the upper portion of the house. Most of the lower areas look pretty good... until you look closer.

The second is a picture of our piano. You can see that much of the damage was caused by the water from the rain and from the water used to put out the fire.

The third photo is of our new skylight. Taken from one of the rooms in our second story.
