It is frightening to have an explosion and not know what exploded. At first, I thought it was in my kitchen and Libby my helper might be hurt. This was not the case. The explosion came from outside where the cars were parked.
The Land Rover (our big car) had an explosion. The explosion came from the spare tire on the back of the car blowing up. What a noise! It was near my house. Guards, day workers, staff and kids came running to see if I was okay. It was a relief to all to find the source of the explosion was not in Mama’s house.
The explosion was disturbing but harmless. The tire was old, and, apparently the heat of the day caused it to burst. It destroyed the tire but did no other damage. It did, however, make us aware that the tires on the vehicle were balding and new tires are needed for safe travel. I am grateful the tire was not on the vehicle while traveling. A serious accident was avoided.
God in charge.
