Fire on Main Street

Yesterday on the way back from Musical Theater Dance Workshop, we saw a firetruck sitting outside the firestation in Cotuit.  As a distraction from some Charlie drama at drama camp I pointed it out along with the two firefighters. 

Charlie said, "Maybe they are going to a fire."  I really didn't think this was so as we witnessed no urgency in their action as we passed by.  But sure enough, a few minutes later I said to Charlie, "I smell smoke."  To which he said, "Maybe it's the fire."

"What fire?"  I just didn't listen to my son.  He saw a fire engine and thought it was heading to a fire.  He was right.  There was a fire.  It destroyed two businesses on Main Street.

As we got closer the air became choked with smoke.  My hair smelled of smoke.  From the drive-through ATM Charlie took pictures and cheered to the firefighters.  Here is what he got..

Five shots one winner.

Here is what the paper got.

Same action, different angle.  I like Charlie's.  :)  But... he's my kid.
