I was talking to Jim Saylor tonight and he tells me that the old Carson and Colorado water tank at Laws fell down on Monday about 11:30 AM when a crew was trying to stabilize it. It seems that the ENTIRE structure FELL DOWN! He has pictures of it going over and will post them soon. It seems that a local TV crew was on hand to record the process and got a WHOLE LOT MORE that they bargined for! He is hopeful that it can be rebuilt soon as all of the metal parts seem to be OK.
