Rhett, along with over 130 other members from our area shaved their heads in support of 4 year old Tyler Shannon last Sunday

I often hear people on the job talk about the mythical "Brotherhood" and how it either doesn't exist or is fading. I couldn't disagree more.

It's been humbling for us to watch Randy grow not only into a good fireman but now a husband as well. Both are HUGE accomplishments and I'm confident that he will do well at both.

"When we climb, it is emotional. The feelings I have felt, the thoughts I have had, the emotions have been engraved in my mind. They are my tattoos." (quote from Rhett Fleitz)

I guess Rhett and I were kinda like the FoxFire "booth babes". I say that for several reasons. One of the reasons is because we were wearing kilts. Not dresses ... kilts (it's defined by what you ARE or are NOT wearing under em ...lol). Not just any kilt either. We were wearing our custom kilts from ALT KILT.

As a Company, we live, eat and play together. Because of that, we are united and that enables us to fight together (fire fighting). Now, we've added another level to our bond of Brotherhood and have attended Church together. We've prayed together and this past Sunday, even received Communion together.

In preparation, I'm going to take Rhett to a tattoo parlor sometime this week. I'm going to have the devil put on one of his knees and the great Chicago fire on the other. It will be more realistic that way because Rhett wearing a kilt is going to look like HELL! LMAO !

Today, instead of joining my Brothers and Sisters on the Parade route and raising a few pints in celebration of St Patrick's Day, I'm working day 2 of a 72 hour tour. Yea ... 3 days straight!
