I left the house around 19:16 hours last night and headed on up to Lykens to go to work. I stopped at Tower Mini Mart in Lykens and put some air in my tires and then got something to munch on that night. I then went to the station and once there parked and got my stuff and headed inside. Once inside I clocked in and put my Gatorade bottle and bottle of Chocolate Milk in the fridge and then did a quick rig check on 6-3. Zach then clocked out and Kuntz said about heading on down to Eville as he had some paperwork to turn in. So shortly after 20:00 hours, we got in 6-3 and headed on down to Eville. We passed Steve and Tim, we assumed that they were heading to Wal-Mart. Once at Eville I was able to check both the ALS and BLS supplies and restocked them. I then placed an order for supplies and then Kuntz was ready to go and we got back in 6-3 and headed on back up to Lykens. Once back there Kuntz put in a movie and I played a few games on the computer. I talked to Bubba twice last night while he was out at work. I finally laid down around 00:50 hours to go to sleep. Kuntz was already sleeping on the couch when I laid down. Shortly after I laid down, Bubba called my cell phone again, but I couldn't get to it in time. Then around 01:30 hours the tones went off for an overdose in Jackson Township at Harman Stoves. I listned to it as the Eville crew handeled it, and apparernlty the guy overdosed on caffeeine pills. I reset the pager and went back to sleep. I woke up again around 05:10 hours when the tones went off again for a call in Millersburg at the Dialysis Center. The Eville crew was just getting ready to clear from the last call, and they took this call in. So I reset the pager and went back to sleep once again. I woke up around 07:40 hours when Kuntz came back in from the bathroom and let the door slam. I got up and got the stuff back on my belt and then put my pillow away in mu suitcase and got my boots on. I then grabbed my stuff out of the rig and brought it into the day room. Jim them came in around 07:55 hours and then Kathy came in shortly after he did. I then clocked out and talked to Kathy for a little bit and then left to head on home. I made a quick stop at Swab's and took some pictures of the body which is now sitting in the electrical shop awaiting the start of rough wiring. I then left there and headed on home. Once at home I changed into my pj's and went back to bed to get some more sleep. I woke up this morning around 11:30 hours and I got out of bed and ate lunch and read the paper. I then went downstairs and rode my 5 miles on the exercise bike. I then got on the computer and worked on my one article for this year's convention yearbook. Then at 14:00 hours I went downstairs with my mother and we went through some mof my things and we have quite a bit to take up to goodwill, which we plan on doing this Friday. I then made and ate dinner while I watched MASH on TV. I then changed into street clothes and left the house around 17:30 hours and headed up to the hall for bingo. I parked behind the hall and as I was doing that, I heard the Engine turn into the alley. So I went over and opened the Engine bay door and here it was Lyle and Lonny. They had gone to fill some guys hot tub. I then headed up to the hall and once Jess got there we got to work selling the stuff. Shortly before bingo started, Bubba's pager went off and it was a 29 call, for all available personel to respond to their station for an emergency work detail. Bingo then started and a few games in, Bubba's pager went off again for a 29 call, this time for all available personel to respond to their station to assist in a search detail. Then shortly after the first special, everyones pagers went off for all available 216 personel to respond to the top of Peters Mountain to assist in a search detail. Everyone started getting up to go on the call and Bubba said he would pick who would go. I was originally going to stay and call second half, but then he talked to Lonny and Lonny said he would call the second half, so Bubba told me I could go and to run home and get my boots. So I ran home and got my old pair of work boots that I kept for occassions like this and then headed back up to the station. Once there I parked and then headed into the station. The Engine was already started. On the Engine it was Bubba driving, then Troy. House and LeeAnn. I grabbed my gear and headed around the front of the Tanker and Bubba pointed at me and then the Utility and I shook my head. I then put my gear in the Utility and the moved it out and Troy shut the Engine bay door and turned the lights out. We got to the top of the mountain and I put one of the vest from the Utility on and grabbed a hand light and the portable radio and then we reported to Alf nad we got our assignment and off we went. We had probally gone about 1-1/2 miles when they said that they had contacted him and he was spending the night in the Clarks Ferry Shelter out on the trail. We then headed back to stagging and once all the teams were back in, we were relased. Bubba told me to just head back to the station since I didn't need any fuel and they were going to stop. So I headed back to the station and backed the Utility in and then waited for the Engine to get back. While I was waiting for the Engine, I took my gear out of the Engine and put it back in my stall and then the Engine got back and I opened the Engine bay door and Bubba backed in and then I shut the bay door and then I filled out the run sheet for the call. I then went back up to the hall to finish helping with bingo. Once bingo was over it was noted that the sink was not draining. LeeAnn asked me to take a look at it and I checked the drains and they were clear. Bubba came in and he said that the pipe outside might be frozen. I then said that I would run up to Wal-Mart to see if they had any of this liquid heat that Martha had talked about. I got up there and they didn't have it. So I grabbed some Roto-Rooter stuff and heaed on back down to the hall. After empting the sink by hand, I put this stuff in and am going to let it sit over night. I then left and headed on home. Once at home I took a shower and am soon going to bed as I am tired.
