If I were a reporter, let's just say I'd get fired. Nothing like a timely story.
This was the scene earlier this week right across the road from our new location.
I heard it, however didn't initially connect the boom with the sirens and the big cloud of black smoke.
As it turns out it was a major chemical (Barton) plant that exploded and shut things down for quite a while. Fortunately no one was seriously injured.

Oh fun. That had to be a mess. We just had a guy get injured at our local sale barn. Though noone seems to know who it was as yet. How is everything going with the new facility? And Happy Halloween. What are the boys doing for it?
