I'm not in this picture (I'm on the far side of the house on a hoseline)... I had a blast yesterday. I've honestly not been that worked over in a long time. I wish I would haver rememberd the marshmellows!

(oh this was a training fire, don't want anyone to think we were that happy to see a home burn to the ground.)

 

[hooples3]

what do you do?? rebuild a home in the same spot and burn it down again???

 

[smedford]

It works great, the carpentry students get training that way.

We get homes donated to us. This one was a home donated because the inside had to be renovated for one of the occupants that has a medical condition. The cost of doing that would have been more than just putting a new modular home on that land. So they donated it to us to burn down, and then the remains of the home get taken away in a dumpster.

Yeah, not all firefighters can be as talented as me, some have to practice at it.

well, I think they need more instruction, I'd suggest using some water instead of posing in a group pic but what to hell do I know
