Pictures Scanned

I went to bed last night at 01:00 hours as I was falling asleep at the computer and was rocked out of bed this morning around 10:18 hours when the pager went off to set up a landing zone at Station 216. I jumped out of bed and took my pj's off and got dressed and grabbed my wallet, cell phone, pager and job sweat and then my keys and got in my car and took off for the fire house. I got there and pulled in and Ray was already there and getting his gear on. I parked and went in the front door as Ray said that Bubba had just gone in there. So I went in and kicked my shoes off and took my job sweat off and laid it on top of the fridge and then got my bunker pants on and my jacket and grabbed my helmet. Ray then came in the front door and then we both got in the Engine. I then got back out so I could shut the door once the Engine was gone and then I got back in the officer's seat. I thought we were going to land them out front, Bubba was going to land them in the field behind Helen's house and he told County this and county said that they had given Life Lion the cordinates for the field at the intersection of Armstrong Valley Road and Tobias Road, so we said ok and went there. We got there and me and Ray set the cones up and then we waited for Life Lion to show up. 6-8 then showed up and 6-2 was behind him. Yeager was driving and it was Flipper and Boyer in the back with an unconscious man they brought down from Wal-Mart. After they dicked around some in the back of 6-8, we helped them load the guy into Life Lion and then they took off and we picked the cones up and then shot the shit. Schoffstall had pulled into the station as we pulled into Armstrong Valley Road and he grabbed his gear and then came to the scene. Jean then got there and did traffic control and then Dave and Jason showed up in Dave's truck with a cattle trailer being pulled behind it. We joked with him that we were going to give him a break this time. We then headed back to the station and Katina was there and we shot the shit while I filled out the run sheet. We then all left around 11:00 hours and I headed on home. Once at home I ate lunch while I read the paper. I then went down stairs and rode 5 miles on the exercise bike and then came upstairs and scanned in all the pictures that Dave Houseal had sent me and got them cropped and saved and loaded up to photobucket. I then ate dinner while I watched MASH on TV. I then changed into street clothes and left the house around 18:00 hours and headed up to the fire hall for the meeting. The meeting went good and afterwards they had the Fire Police meeting. Myself, LeeAnn and Katina talked to Bill about getting the TV that his parents wanted to donate to the fire company tonight. So the three of us loaded up into LeeAnn's vehicle and followed Bill over to his house. We then loaded the TV into the back of Bill's truck and took it over to Katina's house and are going to store it in her garage until we get the new station built. We then went back to the hall and after the Fire Police meeting was over, myself, Jess, Troy, Dave, Robin and Holly shot the shit some up in the hall and then we all left around 21:00 hours and I headed on home. Once at home I took a shower and am soon going to bed as I am tired.
