Wilfire destroys Jag

[aeronca65t]

A recent wildfire in Texas destroyed this family's garage.

Which housed a restored Jag sedan :frown:

That was in our local paper yesterday.
Seems to be too many bad things happening lately.

Agreed... There is a local artist and musician who lost almost everything in a house fire, he didn't have tenants insurance but regardless all the insurance in the world can't replace paintings, film negatives and prints... Fortunately he was at a local cafe at the time playing piano, instead of at home in the line of fire...

Talking to a friend about his situation, she wasn't sure what she would do with her prized 18th century violin in a similar situation, would she endanger her life to rescue it? Since it's something so priceless to her and not easy to replace...

Local fire dept. trainer told me once that close to half the people who die in home fires are the ones who re-enter the house to get something out. Very dangerous business.

If the fire's hot enough or smoke's bad enough to make you leave the building, don't return. The odds are stacked against you.

Too bad about the Jag, above. Hope he had insurance on it.
