Scotty, this is not the first time I have had thimble trouble. In Dec,2000 My house burned to the ground due to thimble trouble. It was an old two story house, and for some reason it had thimbles installed in the upstairs rooms. They had been plugged up before I moved there with coffee cans and mortar. As you can imagine the mortar cracked and let a spark start a old oil painting hanging over the thimble to catch fire. This was at 4:00 am. Both my boys were asleep upstairs, as luck would have it the painting dripped on the younger boys bed and it caught on fire. The heat from the burning quilts woke him up and everyone got out OK.That time we lost almost everything. This time I had good water supply and an axe handy, Had I been at the barn it would have been lost as well.
