Effects of the Explosion
Flickr user She’s Not Ther posted this photo with the title “My sisters house is gone” (This photo was taken just over a week ago.)
It was right next door to the First Baptist Church that exploded on April 2nd, 2008.
Oconomowoc was a complete and total mess, due to the road construction, and the disaster, so they were re-routing traffic everywhere. It’s a great loss for the city to lose a landmark, and a great sorrow for those who lost their homes.

This is a sad sad story. That church always remined me of a porceline model that would be put up around christmas for the set that was in . I always wanted to go in, but I never did and now I really wish I had.
