This is my grandma and grandpas house. They passed away years ago. But they lived here

[@Cpk75492]

I miss them both!

ABC sent a helicopter to film extinguished farm house 50 miles away?🤔

[@KellyBrown-c6m]

How devastating 😢

[@nildesperandum4776]

I wonder if anyone realized the firetruck was parked on the fire hose. 🤔

[@ErycRycan80]

It is lol

[@jerryhughes5380]

Good catch! Only this is a supply pumper. Oh sure, the Engineer drove over his intake hose, but it's soft suction anyways. He didn't have a hydrant to begin with because he was in the middle of a cornfield, and since he's not a relay pumper or the attack pumper the only thing he can do is draft water from a source, like the cistern he's parked in front of. This pumper isn't going to intake from the Officer's side 6" intake through the soft yellow hose. It's gonna draft from that Fold-A-Tank using a 10' section of non-collapsible intake hose off the front bumper. Chief Hughes Battalion 1 (retired) Chicago FD

I was here. Wish i could find footage of the active fire. I saw media recording from a distance over the fields

It really is surreal watching my house burn down on the news

[@Cpk75492]

The history of this place who have ever spent time with the owner and his family are very sad. There's been a lot of happy memories in everyone's head who have visited!
