It Wasn't My Cooking!

This is only part of the scene outside our house on November 24.  A horrible burning smell took over the house in the afternoon, but we could not locate the source.  We had to call the Fire Department as we were afraid something behind a wall was burning.

Three fire trucks with sirens blaring, one ambulance, three captain trucks, one police car blocked our street for nearly an hour while they used infared cameras to search for the source.  They smelled it too, but we could not locate the source.  The next night the boys realized it was an Xbox charger that had burned right through.  It was reassuring to know the source at least.
