Fire Safety

This is not specific to Thor but a reminder for all of us. I had a very chilling call the other night from my daughter who was camping with their 1992 Four Winds Class A 31' motor home at the Colorado River in Yuma, AZ. They were leaving their camp site on their pontoon when they noticed that their coach was becoming engulfed in flames. Thank the Almighty that they had all their babies on board the boat, the dogs didn't go on this trip and no one was injured. The Class A is nothing but a burnt out cinder. Don't know at this point what caused the fire but I suspect old wiring or problems with the refrigerator. The point is that we are talking about our Axis as far as scenarios for escape routes in the event of a fire while we are inside. Very sobering call as I said.... I'll share more info as I get it. Got a bit of a story how a BLM uniform employee was reading my daughter's family the riot act about possible HAZMAT costs because of the totally burned motor home but that might lead me into a very negative rant....
