    Just stayed home and relaxed. How is it volunteering? I have an opportunity to become a volunteer-paid. I haven't started yet and I am excited! What information or advice can you give me? I would greatfully appreciate it!

    I like it but there are a lot of double standards for things. I know it's in every department but it seems more previlent here. Oh well maybe it's just me

    I've always been interested in fire and ems since i was little. My mom thought it was too dangerous so i didn't get into it under after my son was born in 2002.

    I love helping people, the excitment of every call that goes out and what will happen with it. I love the lights, sirens. The not knowing when the next call will be.

    Helping someone in their biggest time of need no matter how small or large it may be. Its hard to explain.

    I'm doing pretty well. How about yourself? Anything good going on over there? We had a good chimney fire last night, a vehicle fire this morning and a structure fire this afternoon. Other than that pretty good.
