Were Baaack! We were demobed this morning. Yesterday we sat in camp all day with our engine. We were staged waiting in case a new fire starts. We tried to catch up on some sleep throughout the day but it's hard to do when its hot and your in a truck. It looks like the fire scene is quieting down for now but it is only a matter of time before we get called again. At any rate it's been a good start to the season. i have had 12 1/2 days of fire work. That is good considering I haven't worked more then 2 weeks since last November. Good to work again.
I want to give a special thanks to the people from the Dixie National forest. The residents treated us like hero's and were very hospitable. Thank all of you for that. Also I want to thank you also for the parting gift you sent us home with. Thank you again.
It's been a tiring go of it. When we were called to this last fire we left @ 8:40 pm pacific time and we mad it to the fire camp at 2:30 am. So as you can imagine we are tired.So with that thanks for following fire season 2012. We will likely be out again this season, so I will keep you in the loop and give you the inside scoop as I am able. Until the next fire.......
P S I will put up more pictures of our fire adventures and also have the normal blog tings going on. So please keep checking back. If you like my blog please tell a friend.....Later
