I was out there with the fire company last time this place went up, spent 7 hours there, and had to call out of work the next day because I didnt get to sleep. Even had to go back the next day because the morons light a fire again.
People need to stop their antics with this place and the owners need to run a bulldozer through it and put a good fence up.

As if no one knew this was arson. It doesnt take much thought to realize that it was probably vandals. Maybe Barbara Skinner should break out her Sherlock Holmes books and solve this one. It might save the taxpayers some money not having to pay all the other agencies who are investigating it.
