Details Around the Firehouse

By Pyro43 written 4/6/07 2:28 PM, published 4/7/07 5:24 AM

The fire department had rehearsal (practice) last night. It was a night of squad rotation, so Squad 1 practiced the Squad 2 procedures, Squad 2 practiced the Squad 3 procedures and Squad 3 practiced the Squad 1 procedures. I usually travel with the chiefs as they round-robin to each practice area so I can get shots of all. Well, this old boy decided it was just too cold and windy to venture out. You know you have to keep you camera warm. Right? And anyway, they were doing the same things they did last time with different squads. So, with that in mind I decided to stay in and wander around the firehouse and take some pictures.

AKR LITE SN 667 circa 1927
Caduceus
Seat Handle circa 1927
Fire Truck Seat circa 1927
Call anytime! We still make house calls.

There seems to be a self portrait (naked) sub-theme running. So, here goes mine. I’ll admit I didn’t used to be so heavy, but here goes. Are you ready?  YIKES!!!

Happy Easter!

    Happy Easter Pyro! Watch out those peeps could end up in your microwave if the crazy cat gets a hold of them. I love the shots in the hall. I need to get to our and take the time to really wander around and get some shots. With any luck they would get a run and then I could get some action shots that would be cool. Oh and btw you look a little like a dumbell!!!! lol
