Firehouse


What a fun day!  Colby, Dylan and I went to the firhouse on Hogan to tour the inside and see the BIG trucks the firemen get to drive and play on.  We went with my Mom 2 Mom group from church.  The guys who worked here were so nice and I loved that they didnt mind the little kids touching things, asking questions (basically all at the same time) and the patience they had with this age group.  Many thanks go out to Station 28!!

The chief called the dispatching office and asked them to called back with a "fake" cll so the kids and moms could hear what the alert sounds like when they have an emergency to attend to.  YES it was LOUD!!

Sitting in a BIG recliner where the guys are lazy to watch movies and or TV
The table in the kitchen.  Each day someone is assigned to cook for the house. Some are good cooks and some can't even boil water :-)

Fireman Joe put his entire suit on to show us all the gear they have to have on to go into a fire.  Within the last few days they had been at a massive fire and you could still see the black stuff from the fire and smell it on his suit. 

Colby thought it was so cool to be with the Fireman but Dylan wasn't quite sure!
On the fire truck....it even smelled really bad from the last big fire they just fought.

He is getting used to it all so maybe a furture Fireman :-)!

Pulling out the truck to see how far the ladder can go up.....



He went all the way to the top!!
