I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! I know I did. The Buckaroo, the girls and I spent the day at my Dad’s house for a very relaxing and belly busting Thanksgiving meal. Pop cooked a 25lb turkey and it turned out PERFECT. The only thing better than the food was spending the day with family. Now, my family is ...

ALL ABOARD!   Seems as though everybody is jumping on the Xtranormal“band wagon”.  Those little animated videos are poping up everywhere on the Fire/EMS Blog Network. Who knew that after only a month or so, the top bloggers on the network would be mimicking me? Oh yea.. it’s true and like they say…. imitation is flattering… but STATTER? I always held ...

I’m getting old! Well, I’m not so sure 41 is old but at minimum, I’m worn out. As young privates at #5, Scotty (Scott Mutter) and I wanted to, could and did run all night. Back then, we were busy. We caught a lot of work but also wound just as many street boxes (I even had the nick name ...

Sorry folks… I’ve been idle for a bit. You guys already know I’m kinda busy and it takes me so long to type these posts out that I just decided to take a “mini-vacation”. Now,  I  have a lot of catching up to do. This morning, I have a little something for your eyes and something to warm your heart as ...

I’m sure one has some where at some time or another, I’m just not aware of it. I only used that title because Dave Statter was explaining to Rhett how a title such as this will / can draw readers. That said, I’m not even sure why I want / need to draw readers because I really don’t have a lot to ...

Get your minds out of the gutter…. I’m talking about mustaches for Pete’s sake! Say what you will but, when it comes to mustaches, “SIZE” really does matter. Now, like I said (and I aint bragging) I have a big one. That said, I don’t know many other fellas that even come close to being in the same catagory. As a ...

I’m gonna post later on this evening / tonight but wanted to take a minute or two for a few quick updates and to wish everyone a safe and Happy Halloween. The meaning of Halloween changes drastically from childhood to adulthood and even more so when you’re a firefighter. For the kids, it’s all about dressing up in whatever costume ...

Yesterday was our last of the cycle and I pulled the tour. Not only did I work, I also had to fill in and ride the Battalion. For those of you who follow this or any other of our local blogs, you’ll know that the North side Battalion runs out of the new Station #5.Yesterday was my first day stepping ...

Who am I kidding?? It’s been a busy week, month and year! I know you folks are tired of hearing it but things really are hopping around here lately and, although it may not seem like it; I am working to get the new site change up and “live”. I’ve been playing around a little with the new look trying ...

Yea…can ya believe it?? Back to back post! Hey, I know excuses are like a certain body part (or orifice)… everybody has one LOL but no kidding I’m as busy as a cat covering up…ummmm..errrrrr… well…You get the picture.. it’s my “busy time”. Home / personal stuff, work, the farm… you name it. I’m working all day everyday, come home, ...
