Out of the Closet
You may have noticed that I've started identifying myself and the department I belong to in the header of this blog even though I'd originally said I wouldn't.
After the news articles came out and essentially "outed me", I figured trying to hide was just an exercise in futility.
Open up the bomb bay doors...
Yesterday, we had our open-house for the community to come and check out the station house and the trucks. I got some great pictures and I'm disappointed I can't share them with you on this freebie blogspot site. If I ever do get them uploaded somewhere and get links, then I'll "post" 'em here.

Events and Un-events...
October is Fire Prevention Month. If your local fire department is having an open house, take a moment and pay them a visit. If they're raising money, please donate.
This past week has been busy. On Saturday, we had a ropes drill and practiced rappelling. I hadn't done that since freshman year of college (11 years ago if you're counting) and it was a blast.
Monday was the regular drill night. I had planned to stay a short time but ended up staying for it all.
Wednesday, I went to help out with stuffing the envelopes for the fund raising drive. If you ever want a sample of my DNA, take a swab of the envelope. :-)
Thursday: My Loo (Lt.) and I took a ride down to Swarthmore's Fire Department where they also have a deaf firefighter. We talked with him and the officers to find out how training and fireground activities were done there.
Today: nothing.
Saturday: Nothing.
Sunday: Open house at FDMT from 10am to 5pm. Stop by!
Next friday is our golf tournament. I still need a fourth. Please let me know if you can come! :-)
Not much else is going on. I'll keep blogging when I have a few minutes.
