I seen friends old and new. Many I had never met before face to face and several I wouldn't hesitate to go through doors with.

I've always said that all I need is a month or two in the same station and/or one working fire to know whether or not a probie (or non-probationary firefighter for that matter) "gets it". That quickly, I can determine if he or she has "heart".

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.

WOW …  What a trip ! They say “all good things must come to an end” so I left DC this morning at 6am and headed back to the farm. I hated to leave. The 2011 Congressional Fire Service Institute Dinner  was AWESOME. I knew that this was going to be rushed trip but also one that I wouldn’t want to ...

It's why those folks came up to me and told me someone was still inside .. they knew we'd go get em.
