A beautiful old house in Birmingham, Michigan was completely gutted by fire earlier today. Four local towns sent equipment and water was pumped from a number of hydrants, some almost half a mile away. By the time I arrived, the flames had been doused, but a firefighter told me they were going to have to pour water down through the roof for several hours more. The fire had started in the basement and burned up through the house. I would guess the house to be about 80 years old. It has three big fireplace chimneys, a slate roof, and copper gutters and sits on a large corner lot. Kids' bikes could be seen in the garage, along with taped boxes. The boxes had me wondering if the family had recently moved in.
