My husband, teenage boys and I saw smoke and went over. The grass by the first house was scorched and a patch was still burning. We realized that a car was on fire and then the explosions started. It sounded like fireworks or gunfire. I called 911 at 1:17. We wanted to do something but were afraid to get too close because of whatever was exploding. At the point we called 911 it was spreading too quickly for our boat fire extinguisher to have done any good. We realized someone had notified the family of the second house because they came in off the water and were able to move the car and get some stuff out. We didn't hear the first fire truck until 1:42.
I've been sending prayers to all involved, firefighters included. God bless you all. I'm sorry we couldn't do more.
