aren't my nieces and nephew so cute. we had a great weekend. this is from left to right; Lily, Chandler, Madison, and Isabelle. they are so little and so much fun.

my fire engine

This is Engine 52. A thing of beauty isn't she. It's parked kinda funny because she's in the parking lot because we were using her lights and equipment for training. We were tearing a car apart, aka extricating a "victim" out. It was easier to do it in the parking lot rather than on our deck. She sure does look sweet.

What in the world?

You will never guess what this is. This is a picture of what is left of a 4wheeler headlight after being exposed to fire. Well, mostly heat because the one that got exposed to fire was only a metal frame left. Anywhoo... I am sure you guessed it, there was a fire in my city and I got to be there. It was a very hot fire. Perhaps you read it in the news, but perhaps not. Everyone is okay, and we are very lucky about it. Several propane tanks and power lines could have caused major damage to firefighters and by-standers. Fire is amazing! Dangerous, yes I know, but oh so much fun to watch.
