ANOTHER POOL DAY

Here I am at FS105’s again. This time I have my A/O Lou with me, so it is a little more like home. Nothing much happened today. Lets see, we killed a rattle snake by chopping off its head. Did you know that a rattle snake can bite you up to two hours after chopping its head off? We buried its head on the side of a hill. Oh, the snake was only about 18” long. But the little old lady was trapped in her house and could not leave.

We also rescued a baby from a car. Like many times before, mom got out of her car and let her two-year-old son play with the keys. You can guess what happened, the child pressed the door lock and we were called to save the day. All in a day's work.

I took off last shift and good thing I did. Lou was working and while responding to a structure fire, the tillerman tillered into a parked car. You have to call the Chief and PD out for a full investigation. Not to mention the paperwork that is involved. Oh well, good thing I was not there.
