Busy past few days

It has been quite some time since I posted on this blog. Thursday night it was down for maintenance, so I could not post. I spent most of the day Thursday up at the fire house working on the Utility and helping Bubba out. I went off duty at 12:00 hours and have been off duty since. I got home a little late Thursday night. I then got up Friday and spent most of the day down in Penbrook at the county convention. It was nice to catch up with some old friends that I have not seen for awhile. The meeting was good, the food was good and the church service was very good. My father left after the church service and I stayed for dinner. I sat with a few guys from Londonderry that knew me and we talked. The meal for dinner was great and the entertainment was very good. We then finished up the meeting and after it was over I left and headed on back up over the mountain. I stopped at home and changed clothes and headed back up to the fire house to do the touch up work on the Utility and then I helped Andy with the Engine. I left there around 01:30 hours, went home took a shower and was in bed by 02:00 hours. I was back up at 06:00 hours. I got into uniform and went up to the fire house. We left there around 07:45 hours and headed on down. We stopped at Lenny Dennie's and we ate breakfast with Robin and Bill and my father stopped also and ate breakfast with us. We then headed on down to Penbrook. We stopped at the fire house and registered and then went to the pre-judging area. Me and Bubba sat there for about 2 hours. We were able to eat an ice cream cone before we got judged. I was one of the last four pieces of apparatus to be judged. After I was judged I met them at the Wendy's on Progress Avenue and then we went and lined up in the parade. After the parade we went back to the Penbrook Borough park. The Engine did not win anything. The Tanker got beat by Union Deposit and Williamstown. I took second place with the Utility losing out to Life Team River Rescue. We then left and headed on home. We stopped and gases up and then once back at the statoin I swept up some while everyone else ran home to change clothes. I then changed clothes and once Bubba left, Me, Andy, Barb, Helen, and LeeAnn went up to the hall and sat around talking while they drank. I did not drink because of driving home. I left there about 23:30 hours and headed on home. I talked to my mom for a little bit and then I crashed in bed for the night. I got up early today and went up to the fire house to make the chickens. I ended up having to go around my devlopment to finish selling the chicken half's. After that I helped Bubba fill 4 pools and I got home around 21:00 hours. I ate dinner and took a shower and am now getting ready to hit the old email and surf the web for a little bit. Tomorrow I will be sleeping in.
