The Smell of Smoke

My neighbor (who recently discovered that squirrels were in her attic), smelled smoke in her dining room one afternoon. We were all outside playing with the kids, so she had us, one-by-one, go into the house to try to determine what the smoke smell was. We all confirmed there was a smell, but no visible smoke. We decided to call the fire department, and then tell the kids...

...who were very excited! Within minutes, we had them all gathered on our driveway, and they could hear the sirens. The firefighters arrive--even a firechick! They checked out the house, and then let the kids look at their cool tools!

Heading back in to give the verdict (squirrels chewing on wiring??).
They were told to have someone check all the ducts.

They were so good during all the excitement!
