The Carriage House in Nova Scotia burned last night. A lightning bolt hit the cupola, blowing out all the windows and setting it on fire. Our good neighbors called the fire department in Liverpool, and they did their best. The good part is that no people were living in the Carriage House. The bad part is that we have a huge mess.
It is interesting the response. Brian and Jackie called, first in the middle of the night which we did not answer, and again at 6:00 this morning, to tell us that the whole place had burned down and needed to be gutted. Then George, our builder, went to look and said the same thing. "Just bull doze the place and start again." Walt and Mary went to look it over, both inside and out, and reported that the structure seemed fine and that the floor between the first and second floor was intact. All the interior walls and belongings on the second floor need replacing. There is a vast difference between the three responses.
The Insurance Adjuster will inspect the property today and give us the real scoop. We await his response.
