I am so sorry for the Jenkins family who lost their house yesterday due to lightening!  What a shame!

They'd saved much of the existing structure (from 1908) when they'd built around it. Fire analysis showed the lightning struck a tree, and flames traveled along the tree's roots to the electrical grounding post required by Town "code".

Odd, that the house was in a low hollow, with much of the grounds (and granite) around it being much higher in elevation.
