What a difference a few hands can make....

The picture at top is what the former enclosed garage and carport that burnt looks like after a day and a half of cleanup by Stephen, Susan, family, friends and neighbors. The small photo at right is what it looked like the day after the fire. Next up is working on clearing the carpets, etc. out of the part of the house that was damaged in the fire. The garage itself took two full large Dumpsters and the start of a third. Movies and more photos of the cleanup to come over the weekend.

what's that big black machine looking thing to the left in the cleaned-up photo?

Never mind...I see in the clip above its the tool chest. What a cool tool chest it is now, huh? It has CHARACTER! A tough mean bad-ass tool chest. It's sitting there saying, "yeah, that stuff didn't make it, but me? I'm a bad-ass tool chest."

You are correct. It's a Craftsman toolbox packed with tools. Many survived and Stephen was already putting them to use. And you are also right about this bad-ass tool chest now having tons of character. I'm sure it will be the object of many questions and stories in the years to come.
