The whole place burnt to the ground in the mid-80s. I'm not sure if the animals were there when it happened or not. I didnt even know the name of the place until you posted it here. <br /><br />jsaunders@ieweekly.comJim Saundershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04888324256739540454noreply@blogger.com
