Fire

I just popped over to the Herald Times Online for my usual local news perusal during lunch and saw this article (must have subscriber access), describing the animals saved (and lost) at Delilah’s Pet Shop (on the corner of 17th St and College Ave) in this morning’s fire. This was the smoke I noticed from the stadium while waiting on the bus and later, from the third floor of the library. : /

I appreciated one of the many comments on the article, which suggested donating one dollar to the Monroe County Humane Association for every pet that lost its life today (by last count $22). I’m definitely short on my annual giving for this year, so I’ll be putting a check in the mail this week.

Warm thoughts to the owners, employees, pets and rescue personnel.
