No match for fire and tree
.

The main hallway of this old home seems to be the only part of building still standing, and it's not looking too solid. Arson damaged the area to the left many years ago, and more recently a large pine tree has fallen directly onto the roof of the remaining part. This photo was taken at 9:30pm.
