Bad Night at Carnival
Went to bed last night at 02:30 hours and got up this afternoon at 12:30 hours. I got out of bed and ate lunch and then read the paper while I watched All My Chidlren on TV. I then got on the computer to do a few things and then ate dinner while I was on the computer. I then got changed into street clothes and headed up to the fire house around 17:00 hours. I got up there and grabbed a power strip out of the kitchen and then went down to the station. I then pulled the Engine out and then pulled the Utility out and then backed the Engine back in. I then put the sign, wheel, money box, and wrappers in the cab, and then my gear in the back. I put the two clamp lights in the one compartment and then the power strip and some rope in the other driver's side compartment. Bubba then had me bring down the gas can off of the Utility for him to use in his lawn mower, since he had no gas at his house. He also gave me $5.00 to fill up the can after we were done at the carnival tonight. LeeAnn then showed up and we then loaded the cooler up and then headed on up to Millersburg. We got up there and put the wheel on and then put the wrappers up and then the lights. I then went over to Sean and asked him if they had a big tarp we could use to put over the stand, since the one we had was not big enough to cover the whole stand. They pulled one off of the truck and a few of there guys helped us set it up. It was not a good night as not a lot of people came out since it was going to rain. I then finally did rain and that finished the crowd off. The only people left were teens and they did not play any of the games. We closed up around 21:30 hours and headed on back. I passed, Sue, Amanda, Alf, Scott and Medic 6 sitting at a house on North River Road. We then went up to Shell and got fuel for the truck and filled the gas can up. Sue and Amanda went by and Sue blew the siren when she saw me wave. We then headed back to the fire house. Once there, LeeAnn pulled the Engine out and I backed the Utility in and then she backed the Engine in. We unloaded everything and then she headed on home. I then went up to the hall to count the money and Bubba stopped in. He helped me count the money and we made $24.75 for the night. I then headed on home. Once at home I took a shower and ate a light snack. I am soon going to bed as I am tired.
