RV in Flames
This post doesn’t have anything at all to do with effective customer communication!
But it’s not everyday you see such a sight outside your own front door, so I thought I should communicate with you today by sharing the.. ah… experience. I waited a week or so before posting this because I wasn’t sure that I should – but after much to-ing and fro-ing (in my mind at least) I decided it is worth sharing.
According to my neighbor, he felt pretty helpless when he realized what was happening. He had just gassed up, cleaned up and was powering up for a trip to take his daughter back to college so the RV was sitting outside his house, connected to an outlet. Something sparked in the wiring and set the RV aflame. He said he was shocked at how fast it happened and how little there was that he could do! After calling 911, he could only wait for the professionals to come help. One of our other neighbors offered help in the form of the little fire extinguisher from his kitchen. As you can tell from the flames, that wasn’t a lot of help!
The boys from the local fire station did a bang up job in putting out the flames and dousing all the wiring so the fire would die fast. Kudos to the team from Station 58 in Orange County!
I believe the sheriff’s department will be in touch to talk to us about our neighbors and why we think their RV went up in flames. Let the truth be told!
Are there any lessons to be learned from this wild view from my front door? I have no idea!
RV up in smoke
Please comment away below and let me know what you learned, think or just plain have to say about it!
Have you seen anything as wild as this?
I am completely impressed with the article I have just read. I wish the writer of jtewing.com can continue to provide so much useful information and unforgettable experience to jtewing.com readers. There is not much to say except the following universal truth: there is a direct correlation between how hearty a person’s appetite is, and how pleasant and interesting their character. I will be back.
I had a visit from my neighbor’s insurance company this week – checking up on whether I thought there was anything unusual about the RV fire! Unusual, says I, nothing too unusual about my neighbors RV parked outside his house getting ready to go on a trip. What was a little unusual was the smoke billowing from the drivers window which quickly grew into flames!
Like a good neighbor I gave all the right answers despite the rather probing questions. I trust that my neighborliness gets my neighbor his insurance money!
