Halifax Firemen's Carnival, Night 1

I went to bed last night around 02:00 hours and got up this afternoon around 12:30 hours. I got out of bed and ate lunch while I read the paper. I then got on the computer to check a few things. I then left the house around 14:40 hours to head into town to get my hair cut. I paseed my mother as I was turning onto Enders Road and we stopped and talked for a minute and then I continued into town. I got to tab's and went inside and got my hair cut. I got highlights also so it took longer then when I just get my hair cut. I then headed up to Giant and picked up a gallon of Giant Diet Iced Tea, 4 bags of chips and two strips of Crunch Bars for the candy wheel and then headed on home. I was only home for a short amount of time and then Bubba called and asked me if I was going into the carnival tonight and I said yes. He then asked me if I had eaten yet or not and I said no and he said never mind. I asked him what he wanted and he said he was wondering if I could go with him on a pool fill in Eville. He said he just needed me to hold the pipe so he could work the pump since we had to use 150' of hose to reach the pool. He said that he would then drop me off at the fire house and he could go into the pump house himself. I siad I would be up in a few minutes. I then changed t-shirts and grabbed the money box, signs, and left and headed up to the fire house. When I got there, Bubba was finishing up putting the pipe on the side of the Tanker and I put the money box in the cubby hole and off we went. We got up there and it ended up being a 200' hose lay to reach the pool. After we unloaded the tank, we put all the hose back on the truck and I put the pipe back on the truck and we headed back to the fire house. Bubba dropped me off and then I started getting stuff together. I put the money box, bag of candy wrappers and thumb tacks and signs in the front seat, along with the staple gun, the wheel and the sign. I then got the cooler down and sat it beside the fridge. I then put my gear in the front of the Utility and then I pulled it out and went over by the trailer. I got over there and Troy pulled up and came over and helped me hook the trailer up. I then pulled it over beside the fire house and Troy loaded the four wheeler up. I then put the cooler in the back and then we put a table on the trailer and I put the number board on the trailer and two chairs. I then left and headed into town and Troy ran home to get his cordless drill. I got in there and pulled up into the park and dropped the trailer off and the cooler. I then took the wheel, sign and wrappers and other signs over and sat them on the counter of our stand. I then parked the Utility and then saw Troy come down to the trailer. I had him help me carry the board and cooler up to the stand. I then went in, it was harder this year, as I had to go in around the VFW and Pizza Delight. I couldn't go in the other way, due to them having the money bowls there and having nets up on either side of the stand, so I couldn't get through. Anyhow, I got in and Troy handed me the cooler in and I sat it down. Michelle Myers then showed up while I was putting the wrappers up on the board. I then put the wheel up and got the board secured. It was a pretty good night tonight. We made just under $50.00 for the night. I did run out of peanut butter cups, so I have to get more later today. We closed up around 22:30 hours and got everything packed away and got the trailer hooked up and then I headed back out to the station. I got there and the Engine was still sitting out and Bubba was on the computer. I unloaded my gear, the wheel and the cooler and put the money box in my cubby hole for the time being. Troy then showed up and unloaded the four wheeler and then the three of us got talking. Troy then left and I put the trailer away and then the Utility and Engine away. Bubba then came up to the hall and helped me count money. We then talked a little bit more and then we both headed on home. I am soon going to bed now as I am tired and have to get up early later this morning.
