RV fire

I turned on the news in time to see the image below. Poor guy was trying to save his RV with a garden hose. The propane hose was still connected to his RV when the fire department arrived. Glad the man was safe. Click image for larger version

It is 420 day. That looks like a Limo, excursion or van doors on the back. Sure Snoop Dawg wasn't here at 4:20 pm??

Bob - I think the 101 fire was another fire. This one is listed in Sun Valley.

That is a stretch limo at the propane tank. Van doors at the back. If it was a RV it would a AC on the roof, plumbing vents etc.

That reminds me of a story about Sean Penn smoking in an airport. I would have told him to put it out or have it shoved up his a**.
