I'm stunned!
Can almost smell it from here.
Neighbors recently lost their house due to
a recalled 'cadet heater' in the bathroom.
Renters insurance is under 10 bucks a month, homeowners is cheap too but their job is to take $ and KEEP it.
... can never replace pictures and collectables.
Hopefully the cat will just wander back out of the blue.
What is the best thing we could do as a team? Chip in on a storage unit
and send him on vacation ?

Like the true triker he is Pat has repeatedly said today that there are worse people off than him and he does not want any financial help, he was insured so the house and day to day items will be taken care of. He thanks everyone for the well wishes and the offers of help.
We got the rest of his trike/bike parts cleaned out today and they will be returned to his house once it's cleaned up and rebuilt. I got some pictures today and will post them up a bit later.
"Yes its broken, but does that really surprise you?."
"What happened? What does it look like happened?!?!"
You're in my prayers Vealmonkey. I Hope to see some good news come. One day at a time has gotten me through my trials and tribulations so far. I'm very local for any kind of support.

Well, I know insurance can be awhile as well as cleanup; But, I can safely wire anything, replace studs and headers/rafters and sheet rock it all as well as mud to finish.
I know Fabio was sincere as well as myself so if someone can give us a game plan and if we can help, please let us know.......
It would be a great trip knowing what the mission is.....
I can rebuild that whole house like cake! And, I have the time.
No pay necessary. Again, I am so sorry Pat. Losing rare stuff sucks but I bet you'd have traded your fuzzy friend for all of it. Which really hits me hard.
If you guys look close at my avatar, that is Alex my cat I buried awhile back and I buried Rocky today. He was under snow and ice for 3 weeks before I could fix the backhoe and bury him properly and today was 50 degrees finally. Pressure treated coffin with a nice towel and stainless steel screws with his favorite toy were included. Siliconed the whole thing shut!! Rocky was put to sleep about 3 weeks ago. I sometimes wonder if I did the right thing but he had something wrong with him. It was a very hard day and now this.........
Take care Pat.

All our government does is distract us while they steal from us, misspend our tax $ and ruin our country
Pat, sorry to hear this. None of the stuff in the house would mean anything if YOU didn't make it out. Yeah you lost a pet, but YOU made it out. Once again, sorry to read this.

You might be strong as an ox, but without a cart you are just a big dumb animal.
Busy day today, headed back down to Pat's for additional clean up. Thanks to Blue27, Bandito90, Louis Mielke. Here are a few pictures.
There no words to say THANK YOU big enough for the clean up team. You guys rock. I tried very unsuccessfully to quietly get Pat's address and have pizzas and doughnuts and coffee delivered in there for you guys around 1 today.. But SOMEBODY was busy wrenching instead of watching his emails lol!! So,sorry I didn't succeed. You guys did real good![]()
Please help those who cannot help themselves.
ALWAYS buying Museum quality machines,3 and 4 wheels. And any and ALL ,NOS parts,EVERY brand.
I am turning my PM's Off,my Email is billsracing@hotmail.com,put 3WW in the subject. Thanx!
Gun laws do not stop criminals. BULLETS do.
So sorry to hear this. And Veal just seems like such a great guy, makes it almost unfair. I'm just really glad he wasn't hurt, this could be a totally different type of thread.
Thoughts and Prayers from Alabama, Veal. And to the guys that helped, You are the kind of friends that people desire to have. Great job, fellas.
I'm truly sorry to hear and see this. I wish I was closer so I could lend a hand.

Yes it was another dirty day but we have all the trike parts out and on there way to storage. The pic with Louis was just the way we dealt with this...after digging through 6 inches of wet insulation on the floor we were finding parts all over, but it seem to be alot of axles, every time we found one it was a laugh, atleast to us (sorry Pat) almost a treasure hunt, but we are glad we found them before they were tossed. I will get more pics when we unload it all. Fire is an unforgiving b-tch1
Keep going Pat it will get better!!!

He is so lucky to have gotten out of there alive and to have you guys helping him. Has anyone figured out what started it?
Sounds like it was some bad wiring in the kitchen, Fire totally sucks. The worst part of our fire was when i realized i didnt even have socks to wear the next day. Sounds weird, but that's when I started realizing everything was gone.
So very happy to hear that you made it out. Kitty is my thoughts![]()
Sorry for you loss Pat. Glad you made it out! Looks like you have some good friends you can lean on right now. Hang in there!
