A Stairwell and a Cupboard of Jars

On the news lately, a certain city in north Texas--a place called West, Texas--was devastated by the explosion of a fertilizer plant.
Most of you already know this, but I was born in West.
For what it's worth, I have no real memory of the place besides an old house with a staircase and a cupboard of jars. My older siblings will know the place better than I. We moved to Danbury when I was about three or so--at least, before I started going to school.
In fact, this is possibly a picture of the very home we lived in: http://trib.in/XU3fez.
I'll need dad to confirm this, but he already may have on Facebook.
Why do I bring this up? I don't know. It's really strange to think that such an obscure town would ever be on the national news, but there you have it.

That is the house btw...the one where the guys are on ladders on the roof. I actually looked up the womans name and got the address and then google earth'd it....its our old place. :) Crazy small world and in this case a sad one.
Other memories?....you don't remember Christmas's there? Or the chickens or kittens?
