Another Motorhome Fire

I don't think anyone was injured but the rig was a total loss. This happened on I-64 in southern Indiana near Louisville, KY.

I-64W reopens in Floyd Co. after RV fire

Amazing that he had time to unhook the cargo trailer. It looks like the heavy heat was at the engine compartment. Sorry to see it.

Another Motorhome Fire

This was just a few miles from our house. Luckily no one was injured. Good job Lafayette Volunteer firemen on quickly getting the fire under control but a total loss on the coach.

Gee I hate to see photos like that. As long as everyone is okay, that's what's important.
