Oh my, I am so sorry to hear that happened. We were just there 2 weeks ago. I hope that they both heal quickly.

So very sorry for them. Wow that blow out did tremendous damage to them and the coach. Nice bus! Question, did they have a TPMS?

It looks like there is a part of a tree inside the coach. It's a wonder they came out of that alive. Prayers for a quick and 100% recovery.

So glad to hear they survived. I hope their recovery goes smoothly!!

It looks like they lost control and crashed when the tire blew. What did they crash into?
