Berrysburg Parade

I went to bed last night around 02:00 hours and got up this morning at 06:00 hours when my alarm went off. I got out of bed and my mother told me to go back to bed and she would wake me up in 30 minutes. So I went back to bed and she woke me up at 06:30 hours. I got out of bed and changed into street clothes and then ate breakfast and read the paper. I then headed in to the "Barn". I got in there and about 4 minutes later, Truck 20 showed up to put the rope back up on the flag pole. After they were done, we talked for a few minutes and then they lefy and I followed behind them. Once at home I got on the computer to do some things and I ate lunch while I was on the computer. I then headed up to the fire house around 13:30 hours. I got up there and Bubba was working on a grant on the computer so I sat there and we discussed it, along with some other things. We then washed the tanker and boy was it HOT out. We took small breaks and drank plenty of water and Gatorade. After we were done washing the tanker, Bubba went back down to his house and I ran up to Gonder's to grab something to drink and eat. I then headed back to the fire house. Once back there, I changed shirts and then Leeann, Helen and Tonita were there. Leeann moved the engine out and I moved the utility out and the three of them started washing both pieces. We then left and headed up to Berrysburg for the parade. Boy was that parade big. I never knew that it was that big and there was a lot of people watching it. After the parade we all went over and enjoyed the food, games, rides and entertainment. We then left and headed back. We stopped at the Shell in Eville and got disel and then headed back to the fire station. Once back there, most of us stayed and talked for a while and then we all headed on home. Once at home I took a shower and just finished having a light snack. I am going to go to bed soon as I am really tired.
