"Two Escape House Fire on Camano" reads the Everett Herald Article.. 

Most in this neck of the woods (Utsalady) know it as the "Salmon Colored House" - it's renowned for it's color. 

The emergency fire and police response was fast, furious and in great number.. So much so that I didn't venture out with my camera until this morning.

They are saying the fire was caused by the wood burning stove, and that the owners were out mowing the pasture when the fire started. 

A neighbor commented, "if they rebuild it, I hope they paint it another color."

The firewood on the porch didn't burn.. 

As there are few fire hydrants on Camano, the local fire department employs these picturesque tank trucks.. 

This is not the first house fire in this area to be caused by a wood stove - a few years back, along the same road, another house burned to the ground..

Unattended Consequences

"Good morning deer.." a blacktail doe deer popped out along the way..
