well, so there is this really curvy road out here named Hyne. some guy decided he would ride drunk and well, didnt quite take the curve but went straight. his body and the bike went under the road sign but his head hit the sign and went the opposite way as his bike and body. guess who got to go find the head in the woods? me of course. still had to wait for the ME to get there to pronounce him dead. lol. hmmmmm....

Kasey

Thats cool. Its getting hot here. I rode 4wheelers the other day for the first time this year.

Apr 21, 2008
sean currie

its been a lil slow but im sure it will pick up as soon as it gets a lil hotter

Apr 21, 2008
Kasey

haha, I normally love riding them, but the other day I managed to flip the 4wheeler within the first 30 seconds of riding. I hit a huge area of mud that I didn't know was coming and rolled it over on top of me.
I messed the 4wheeler up a little bit, but I was able to keep riding after the spark plug was changed.

Apr 22, 2008
Kasey

Yeah I am too. I was pretty sore the next day though lol.
How is your week going?

Apr 23, 2008
amanda

ha ha! i am the Queen fire stud bitches! lol

Apr 23, 2008
Kasey

My week has been pretty good besides school. I only have 2 more weeks of that though.
Thats cool, I've never heard of volunteers going to other stations when they were shorthanded. The only time we do anything like that is if, for example, our station is out on a huge fire another station will bring a truck and a couple people incase we get another call that we wouldn't be able to cover.

Apr 24, 2008
amanda

good shit! congrats! im proud of you. it wasnt too hard was it.

Apr 24, 2008
amanda

yeah right! i thought it was pretty easy and lots of fun!

Apr 24, 2008
Kasey

Yeah, thats understandable. We never know when we're going to be shorthanded though lol.
Do you trade patches?

Apr 24, 2008
Kasey

its cool. how was your day?

Apr 24, 2008
Kasey

It was pretty good. I overslept so I missed my first class (which is sad considering my first class is at 12:30 lol), but after school I hung out with friends for a few hours.
Congratulations on passing!

your first structure fire will royally klick your ass and you will be confused on wat to do, my suggestion is to stay as close to an officer as you can and never leave the truck with a tool.

Apr 25, 2008
amanda

you definatly learn a whole lot. just dont freeze up if they tell you to go interior, lol. my buddy did that and they laughed at him for weeks.

Hey I just got your messeage now about those lights on the brim of our helmets. We got them from D & Z rescue they cost about $65 bucks but they are pretty nice. THey have three settings on them. If you guys want some let me know cause I can get them personally from one of the owners of D & Z. My cell is 606-0418. I think I could prolly get them in about a week if you want them
