Lol.  Sillies :)

I did ask around today, and found out that there was no property damage done and nobody was injured.  So thank God!

I might try to post a picture of the fire here...once everything settles down a little bit and I can take time to...you know...EAT?  LOL. 

(hugs) again to all

That's what the bowl of Halloween candy is for (or should I say was for). We'll be too busy to answer the door for trick-or-treaters anyways.

Here's a few pics of the fire.  Sorry the quality isn't better...but you get the idea.

Flames were about 2 stories high.  They were shooting up from a big hole in the ground:


Hosing down the side of the house across the street.  The wind was blowing the flames against it:


Right after the explosion:


There ya have it.  Daughter is afraid of flames now.  There was a bang out back today (workers are still working, and they dropped some tools on metal), and she ran to the front of the house...afraid that it was an explosion and flames.  Sigh... :'(

Wow Flame!  That fire sure looked intense and scary.  It's especially scary when it's underground because you just don't know where those flames will travel.  Reminds me of a big fire that happened in an underground utility vault in the City I work in - the fire was under the STREET!  As in your situation, fire shot out of a manhole cover several feet into the air.  Took the fire department several hours to put that fire out!!  I was lucky, though, because my car was parked in the indoor lot right next to the intersection with the fire.  I relieved to have been able to retrieve my car and to find not one car in the lot had any damage from the smoke and heat.  Also, the fire started about a half hour after I walked right past the area where the fire happened!!

I too am glad all of you are safe!

Thank you for sharing the pictures.  Wow, that is scary.  Thank goodness everyone was okay.  Hugs to your daughter for being on edge.  It is understandable though.  I think I would be too for quite some time.  When can we start making flame jokes again?? jk.
