Saw that smoke today from my route in Tiverton. I called my girlfriend to see if she saw what it was on the news. I knew it must be pretty big.

Just saw the footage on TV and was wondering who took it from the boat

I saw the flames as I left my house this morning. Lotsa smoke and I can still smell it out my house (.75 mile away). This was a 6 alarm fire according to the radio, lots of units....

Looks like a concrete structure and probably because of that the wood interior burned like the inside of a wood fired oven.....nothing they could do but let it burn out.....couldn't cut holes in the walls to relieve heat, pressure or get water to where they needed to to knock it down.

Almost time to get our fish on!!!
