Jim Thank you for the add. Stay Safe! (also from the snakes)

Anyway, hope you are well. Sending a friends request.
Keep the volume low at all times and stay safe up there.
Jim, Welcome to Firefighter Nation. I am glad you joined the group.There is lots to do, read and be involved with. Your participation and involvement is important to us all.
