    Wow! I hope everyone is all right!

    Yup – we are.  This was from a few years ago.  Amy showed extreme courage by getting in the car after the fire had started (smoke only), turning the car on, and backing it away from the house and the two other cars it was parked between.  By the time she got out, the fire had really gotten started.

    Man, if this is how parties at your place *usually* end, I'm not going to the right parties…

    Maybe that wasn't courage . . .

    Getting into a burning car?

    What a loss ! Hope that insurance contract was in order.

  • bfeld February 7th, 2010 3:07 pm

    That’s a longer and very frustrating story that has a happy ending nine months later.

  • Griffin Boyce February 17th, 2010 10:03 pm

    WOW! =O How did that manage to catch fire?

  • bfeld February 21st, 2010 9:58 pm

    It turns out it was a fuel injector leak.  Pretty scary stuff.
