Long Day at the Fire Hall

I went to bed last night around 02:30 hours and got up this morning at 09:10 hours when the alarm went off. I got out of bed and ate breakfast and then changed into street clothes and headed up to the fire house. When I got there the Engine was already sitting out and LeeAnn and Katina were just starting to peel the potato's. I helped them with that. Bill then showed up as we were finishing. Schoffstall then showed up after he had run into town to grab something to eat. We then went up into the hall and started working on cutting up the 250 pounds of potato's. Kenny then came in and then Troy and then Martha. Bill then ran into McDonald's and I had him pick me up something to eat for lunch. While he was doing that, myself, Troy, Jason, LeeAnn and Katina all went in to the pump house on the Engine to top off the booster tank and then headed on back out. Bill got back and I then at lunch and then Whitey showed up so him and Troy could start working on the roof. We finally finished the potato's aroudn 15:45 hours I believe it was. I then helped with other things that needed to be done in the kitchen. I helped put canned good away, wash the water pitchers, help move tables abround, and then went up on the roof with Troy to help him get rope to hold the tarp down overnight. I then ran into town and got my hair cut. I then ran up to Sheetz and got gas and then headed back out to the hall. When I got there, they were all sitting around talking. They then pulled the bin of cards out and myself, Katina, LeeAnn, Troy and Schoffstall then played hand and foot until 23:00 hours and then I left and headed on home. Once at home I took a shower and am soon going to bed as I am tired.
