Tonight was one of the biggest scares of my life .... Austin was on his way to meet some friends when smoke starting coming out of the A/C vents. It kept getting worse and he pulled over. About that time, he looked down to see a small flame near the gas pedal. He and his friend jumped out of the truck and called 911. Within a few minutes, the entire truck was engulfed in flames and completely destroyed. I was able to get to them before the fire department and sheriff's dept arrived .... that was the longest 5 min. of my life. I knew he was ok because I talked to him but I needed to be there and put my arms around him.
He and his friend are ok ... a little smoke inhalation and a little freaked out but ok. Below are the photos of the remains ..... scary thing is that this truck was only 3 years old and had under 40K miles ....
God had HIS hand keeping them safe and giving them the knowledge to get out and get away. We experienced a miracle tonight and I'm on my knees in thanksgiving for that.
