What Happened to Us...

We were the evenings's entertainment. The Carnival had come to town.

Fabulous guys, indeed. This is the back hallway. Through the doorway straight ahead which leads to the apt.'s elevator landing, you can see the smoke pouring out our front door.

The heat from the flames was so intense, it MELTED the bathroom window. Seeing that afterwards is what made my knees buckle.

Seen better days. But no one got hurt. That's the main thing.

This used to be a bedroom. Totaled.

After five months of living with chaos and loss, a total lack of privacy, inhaling soot, lead paint dust and plaster dust daily, a day finally comes when you can see it will be a home again.
