T&P Request (not for me)

5000 Comments Fifth Anniversary 500 Love Its First Answer
edited September 2013 in Getting Pregnant
My inlaws are in Seaside at their shore house working on repairs for the last two weeks on vacation. Today they took a break and decided to walk up to the boardwalk, luckily they were walking back before the fire started. But it's insane. I'm so sad for all these businesses that barely were able to rebuild after Sandy. Now they are destroyed yet again. DH and I took our engagement photos on this boardwalk. Our picture spots were washed away by Sandy and now we have watched them burn to the sand on live videos.

If you can spare some thoughts for the businesses and people effected, please do.

  • That's devastating, I can't even imagine. I'm so sorry for all of those business owners, and I'm super glad your parents weren't there when it started and are safe.

    Some firefighters had to be treated for smoke inhalation, I see. The articles don't say otherwise- was anyone injured? I hope everyone was able to make it out.

  • @BeeLu - Only smoke inhalation, luckily. No major injuries or deaths. 

    I just can't get over it. And I want to strangle all the people saying that this fire was on purpose for insurance. Can't we just feel bad for people and not speculate? Let the inspectors determine the source of the fire.

  • @islandmonkey8 That's the silver lining, I guess- in a fire that big it's a miracle that nobody was seriously injured.

    Also, people should shut their mouths. That's ridiculous, really, show some empathy people.

  • Just devastating... until I moved last year, I spent almost every weekend of every summer at the Beachcomber and in that area.  Seaside is resilient; nothing will keep them down.  <3 Jersey Strong <3

    @islandmonkey8 I'm glad your in-laws are safe and sound!

  • I spoke too soon about injuries. Three cops were injuried this morning. Two of them badly. It's all too much.
