I was driving my golf cart to Cody's this evening and saw all the black smoke and told my wife it looked like it was near Colony. Must have been one huge fire.

I wonder if one of the golf carts was gasoline and somehow exploded and took everything else with it. Gasoline fumes and a spark from an electrical outlet can create a big explosion.

All the homes down there are electric, I think, so there was no natural gas explosion - unless there were propane tanks in the yard.
