Fire Fighting in Flip Flops

A couple of months ago we took the kids to the school to play on the playground, on our way home we saw a huge cloud of Black smoke on the 93, just up from our house, we decided to take a look. It was a huge motor home on fire on the side of the highway. Cody parked our Tahoe on the side othe road and ran to see if everyone had gotten out. No one else driving by seemed to be concerned with the fire or the family on side of the road, they just kept driving past even though the flames were shooting out into the lane. Then after forever we see Cody go into the highway to try to stop traffic. Now first of all, Cody's outfit of choice for that day was basketball shorts, flipflops, and a mickey mouse t-shirt that Maycie gave him for Christmas. At least he had his badge with him in his wallet. If you think motorists would be willing to listen to a man standing in the middle of the road directing traffic in the before mentioned outfit, you would be wrong....dead wrong. A few choice words were yelled to Cody, cars driving right past him, and a near toe running over incident occurred. By this time the propane tanks on the RV started to explode and all heck was breaking loose. (it was awesome by the way) Still people were trying to sneak by Cody to get on their way, never mind flames shooting into the road. Finally ADOT came to help Cody and blocked off the road. The Fire Department from Bagdad FINALLY came, but there was nothing left of the RV by then. So two hours later we took the family and their dog with us to our house until someone came to pick them up. Another exciting day in Wikieup.
