This was this morning...the morning after our disaster. I don't really care to talk about it much as I'm ready to move on and rebuild so, although I'll be happy to answer any questions you may have about the fire, I won't bring up the subject anymore.
Kathy, I've gotta say, you folks that help out people after a crisis are angels! Don't hold it against me if I woo you when I see you next...it's probably just some kind of complex I'm experiencing :-D

Scott and Peg,
I am sorry about the loss of your house. At least, thank God, that you didn't get hurt, or worse. Most "stuff" can be replaced, but not health. Keep your chins up, and know that your friends are praying for you.

Wow Scott! This is the first that I heard about the fire. Glad that you and Peggy and family got out OK.
Do you know what started it?
I hope everything goes well with the rebuilding!

The second part of the video was a real heart breaker. So sorry guys. I am really sorry for your loss there.
-
I forgot to ask, at the beginning during the intro, what kind of bird was hollering in the background.

Thanks for your thoughts and prayers everyone, it really does help. What a wonderful community of beekeepers we have here! I gotten calls from all over the U.S. in the last two days and Geoff even called from Australia! Each and every caller has offered to help in any way they could and it's just fills my heart to know that we have so many friends here....we love you all.
Allen, the bird you hear in the video is a sandhill crane.

My thoughts and prayers are with you friend.

Glad you are ok and hope your firearms made it ok.

**Update** Just closed on a new place yesterday! 3.5ac on a nice lake in the country. The house and barn both need tons of work but we should get it all fixed up in a few months. Huge live oaks dance around the property and pineapple plants are everywhere. It's got a small citrus grove and a few plantings of Surinam cherries.
As it turns out it was cheaper to buy this place than to buy the materials to rebuild our home.
Should be a great place for an apiary and honey house!

Congrats on your new place.

Awesome that you've landed on your feet. I didn't know about the fire until I saw this video today. My heart goes out to you and yours. Having gone through that myself when I was a boy, you never forget the smell of a burned home or rumaging through what's left. Looking back, everything was replaced in one way shape or form. It's the family that's irreplaceable.
-
Good to hear, congrats on the new place.
-
Great find there Scott.
-
Scott and Peg,
I am very sorry to hear about y'alls loss. Good to hear that y'all were able to make it out with your lives and health. Good luck and congrats on the new place.

Thanks all! We've both been really excited about getting this place...it's truly a slice of heaven (the land anyway). Now that we've finally closed on it I'm still excited to get to work...Peggy...not so much :-D

Wow...somehow I missed knowing about the fire, Scott and Peggy. Very happy for you that you've found a promising home to live in. These past few months must have been tough.

Congratulations on the house and land. If you have a weekend where you find you need help moving hives or with anything; let me know. I hope you and Peggy are still in Volusia County :)
