Fire!

Our side of the building overlooks some apartment buildings, and behind those some taller condos that are supposedly really nice and expensive. Sometimes us Guiders peer out the window to humorous things down below. For instance, last week we watched a woman try to parallel park for about 20 minutes. A couple months ago we watched a pipe on top of the apartment building spew water 10 feet high, then flood the balconies, while about 20 people ran in and out of doors on every floor.

On this particular day, a coworker looked out the window to see a small fire on a balcony of one of the nice condos. As we all flocked to the window, we saw 2 men without shirts sitting at a table doing some kind of handywork. Then a toddler walked in and one of the men sat her on a bar stool without a back.
Cooking meth? Kidnapping? Writing ransom notes? Our imaginations ran wild. In the end we found out they were only bar-b-quing. But it was an entertaining 15 minutes at work. :) If only these guys knew how many people had their noses pressed against an office window spying on them!
