Garage Fire in Eville
I went to bed Tuesday night around 02:00 hours and got up Wednesday morning at 07:10 hours when my alarm went off. I got out of bed and got dressed. I then grabbed mt suitcase and jacket and took them out to thr kitchen. I then packed my lunch and grabbed my Gatorade bottles. I then left the house around 07:25 hours and headed on up to Lykens to go to work. I got up there and parked and went inside. I put my lunch and Gatorade bottles in the fridge and put my suitcase behind the one couch. I then clocked in and did my rig check on 6-5. I then did date checks on 6-8. Kathy then called me and asked me if me and Tim were going to breakfast or not. We said that we were ok. About 10 minutes later the tones went off for a call in Eville Borough and 6-3 and 6-1 took the call. I then got on the computer to check a few things while Tim laid down on the couch and watched some TV. Then around 09:50 hours O'Neal called and said that there was call in Northumberland County for a medical alarm and that Steve said we were to start heading that way. I then heard Steve in the background say that never mind that they would handle. About 2 minutes later the tones went off for the call and Tim sat up. I told him to lay back down that Steve and O'Neal were going to handle it. I heard them go responding and then county said that they were placed in service. I went back to what I was doing on the computer. Then at 10:15 hours I heard tones start to drop on the fire scanner and then our tones went off for a barn fire in Washington Township. I heard 6-2 go responding and me and Tim got in 6-5 and headed on down that way to take a look at it. We got there and it turned out to be a large garage on fire. Bubba had been at Swab's when the call came in and the guys there took all their tools off the truck and Bubba called Cheif 21 and told him that he was in town with the Tanker and asked him if he wanted the Tanker or not. Chief 21 told him to go ahead and respond with the Tanker. So Bubba was there with the Tanker. We stayed there for close to an hour I believe and I got some good picutres. We then left to head on back. I stopped at the Eville station to check on supplies and to pick up some supplies to take back up to Lykens. After I got the supplies Tim was screwing around back in the day room when the tones went off for a fainting in Wiconisco Township. I put the supplies in the back of 6-5 and we got in and off we went. We got there and got the lady loaded up and took her down to Harrisburg Hospital. After we got what we needed, we headed on back. I stopped at the Sunoco on Second Street in the city so Tim could get a cup of coffee and then we continued on back. While on the way back the tones went off for and accident with confinement in Washington Township in front of the West End Garage. I stopped at the Shell in Halifax to get fuel and while I was there I heard 20 call county and ask for 6-1 to meet up with them while they were on their way to Osteo. Steve called us and asked us where we were and we said Shell so we ended up meeting up with them there and Tim went down with them. I ran out to the house and picked up my clipboard and downloaded the pictures I had taken at the fire that morning. I then headed back into Sheetz and waited then until Tim got back on 20. I helped move his gear over and then we headed on back up through. We stopped at Eville so Tim could restock and then we headed on back up to Lykens. Once there I put the supplies away and then ate my lunch as my dinner while Tim worked on his charts. Tim then realized that the Liberty Hose Band practice was tonight. He disappeared while I was in the bathroom and I went to go outside and I saw him walking back over to the station with a tuba around him. He practiced some after he got it tuned up. After he was done we went ordered something to eat for dinner. He order a sub and I got a personnel pan pizza from Ciao's. After 10 minutes I went out and got in 6-5 to go get the food and it would not start. So I put it on the battery charger and waited a few minutes and tried it again, still no go, but it was getting close. Tim now came out and he tried and after about 15 minutes of playing with it we finally got it started and then we ran to Ciao's and got our food. I then ran over to Tower Mini Mart's and grabbed a half gallon of Guers Orange Drink and then we headed back to the station. We sat down to eat and watch an episode of Emergency. We got about 20 minutes into the episode when the tones went off for a headache in Halifax Township. Flipper was out on a call with 20 so we got in 6-5 and off we went. We got to about 1 mile north of Fisherville when Flipper called us and said that they would handle the call. I turned around and we headed on back up to Lykens. Once there we went back to watching the episode and I finished eating and then we wacthed a second episode. It was now 23:30 hours and Tim went back to working on his charts. I laid down on the couch and must have fallen asleep. I woke up at 23:59 hours when the tones went off for a call in Upper Paxton Township at SLV. Tim said that they were back and I went back to sleep unitl 06:00 hours when I heard the phone ringing. Before I could get up to answer it the tones went off for abdominal pains in Klingerstown. I got up and got the stuff on my belt and then got my boots on and we got in 6-5 and off we went. We got there and Dalmatia was there and they brought the girl out. He went with them and I started to make my way back to Lykens. When I was about 1 mile outside of Gratz, the tones went off for a fall victim in Gratz Borough at the Gratz Terrace Apartments. I went responding as 6Q and then I heard 6-3 go responding. I got there and both apartments I went to said that they did not call for an ambulance. So I went back out and asked County the apartment number. 6-3 got there and we finally got in and helped the lady up and then we went available and I went back to Lykens. Once there I got my stuff out of the truck and put my pillow away. Jim then came in and then John came in. At 08:05 hours the tones went off for a call in Williamstown and they left on that. I clocked on and headed on down to Eville. I stopped at the Shell and got fuel and then headed to the Eville station. Once there I filled out my time card and then left and headed on home. Once at home I changed into pj's and went back to sleep. I woke up this afternoon at 14:00 hours. I got out of bed and changed into street clothes. I then read the paper. My father stopped and picked up a pizza at Piaaz Delight for dinner. I ate that while I got on the computer to do a few things. I then left at 19:00 hours and headed into town to get my hair cut. I left there at 21:00 hours and headed on home. Once at home I took a shower and am now getting ready to hit the old email and surf the net. I will be on late tonight so if any sexy ladies want to talk to me, just give me a buzz.
