I passed a car-b-que on route 10 on the way in to work. The guys were driving when the engine started smoking. They popped the hood and poof....up in flames. They were ok, but felt bad for them because there really wasn't anything anyone could do.

Forty car pile up with a tanker over the wall. Crazy.

Keep shooting until it changes shape or catches on fire.

AAF&G cancelled their steel match this morning. I was bummed but sounds like it was a good call based on the above reports.
