i watched for hours thinking i'd never be allowed to know what happened there, at the bank across from me over a couple hours and at the other locations all that same evening because like you're all part of one big club and i ain't in it.

That fire could’ve destroyed.................💁🏻

Great job by all!!

Possibly a passing train not hobos

How’d it start

Let it burn it’s surrounded by water

Just curious since the island is surrounded by water would it put easier to just let it burn

I saw this and could figure out how

That looks just like my front & back yard. We live on the Schuylkill River in Port Indian. We're safe though.

What is the Schuylkill supposed to crest at?

Are the animals safe?
