Description
My wife and I were traveling west on Interstate 40 as it cuts through Gastonia, North Carolina, when we looked over and observed a huge funnel of smoke rising into the air. We joined a growing crowd of locals as we descended on the scene, the National Textile Mill. In about an hour, there were hundreds of onlookers, watching several ladders populated by single firefighters who were attempting to put out the fire. While stopped in traffic, I looked over and saw these kids walking along the railroad tracks. Although there was probably 200 feet of separation between them and the fire, the angle, for me, made it look like they were emerging from the blaze (April 13, 2013).
