(BOOM!)
Summer: Okay, Okay. What's going on?
Bill: There is a car on fire!
Summer: WHAT?!?
Bill: I got to call 911.
This was our dialog as we jumped out of bed and headed outside to help our neighbor.
This is what we saw when we stepped out the door. Bill went running towards the fire and as he got half way there BOOM!! I screamed Bill get away from there. He went around trying to get everyone out of the house and out of harms way.
The car was completely engulfed when we looked out the window. It spread so quickly. I thought it was like the movies where the car explodes but that didn't happen.
The fire fighters got there and began their work. Soon the blaze was out and we all returned to our beds. 
A completely scary event that is a little too close to home. Bill and I had a brief discussion about locking the doors and turning the alarm on. We are going to do a much better job of this in 2010!! Hopefully this is an isolated incident and the neighborhood doesn't go downhill.
Bill and I both were impressed about how quickly we sprang into action and aided the neighbors!
