Don & Susan Picknell Fire Recovery

On the morning of July 14th, there was a terrible thunderstorm that caused a lightning strike to blow apart a large spruce and apparently travel through the ground to start a fire at my parents’, Donnie and Susan Picknells’, 150 year old house in Bath, NH. They are the founding members of The Strawberry Farm Band, a local bluegrass band.

They were luckily awake when they heard the strike and began smelling smoke. They were able to get out of the house unharmed, but the fire began spreading under the floor and into the walls. They have sadly lost everything and could use help getting back on their feet.
