Oh, crap.Ho. Lee. Expletive deleted.
The house behind us just exploded. Back in a bit.
UPDATED: The neighbor's shop/shed just exploded. Seriously. Ex. Plo. Ded. Raging fire, billowing black smoke, and, everything.
No one was hurt, something about an old truck they were working on. A large building, it's burned completely to the ground already. 7 fire engines, 3 ambulances, numerous fire chief vehicles. Estimated $30K worth of tools and machinery in there.
It backed right up to their house, they are very fortunate.

Wow, that's crazy, hope you're all okay!
explain please? please!
Wow! Glad no one was hurt...
It is amazing that no one was killt
This is far more exciting that what you'd find at your average blog, I'll say that. Glad your neighbors are OK. That is wacky scary.
geez! glad everybody is ok. never a dull moment, huh?
OMG! That's nuts! Did it really rattle your house when it blew?!
And no one hurt?? They must have rabbits feet and four leave clovers and the luck of the Irish.
I knew it had to be bad when YOU were dropping the f-bomb on your blog! Yikes...glad that no one was hurt. Stuff can be replaced, you know?
I'm sure glad you updated that. And you never curse like that on here so I was seriously worried!
I didn't hear anything, but I might just be used to it since there's a (I hope) planned explosion just about every day on our side of town.
That's okay Busymom. I'm pretty sure it says somewhere in the Blogger's code of conduct that whenever your neighbor's house blows up, it's quite acceptable to use the "F" word.
Yikes!
I'm glad no one was hurt!
The house right behind us was having a tree removed a few years ago and the tree-removing crane tipped and fell and cut the house in 2... Like hot knife through butter! Thankfully,no one was hurt there either, but it was freaky!
Thank God with all that commotion they didn't discover your meth lab!
