A pair of house fires in Batavia on Saturday night

By Howard B. Owens

Firefighters were battling a blaze at 12 Elm St. Saturday night, when a second alarm was sounded for a fire at 45 Walnut St., according to a report in the Democrat & Chronicle.

The Elm St. fire caused an estimated $2,500 damage to a multil-family complex, 

The two-apartment building on Walnut was gutted, causing an estimated $50,000 in damage.

Off-duty firefighters and units from the Town of Batavia were called in to help Walnut St. blaze, which took 25 minutes to suppress.

Great maps. Did you use that macro thingy ? Hey, how about a tutorial video on how to use that thingy in a post.
Your other videos really help out newbies. Thanks.

Thanks, Gabor. Glad to know.

For now, find an address in Maps.Google.com and look for a link that says "street view" (if available for that address). On Street View, in the upper right is a link that says "Link." Click it and you will see two options -- permalink and EMBED. Copy EMBED.

Come back to The Batavian, and in your blog post, click the "Source" button in the upper left. Paste the EMBED code in as Source code.

Thanks Howard. After watching your posting video again I realized how to do it. Also, thanks to Russ for the other mapping link. You gotta love technology. I did find errors in google map for addresses in batavia already. (corner houses listed pics dont match address). Ex. Google 32 washington ave batavia. Wierd huh ?
