    Hey Morris, thanks for adding me. I know where McEwen is located, but don't get that direction too often. If you are ever up in the McKenzie area, let me know. I will be glad to show you around our station.

    things have been pretty uneventful around here... nothing exciting happening. There was a fire in yorkshire on Saturday at the old Ames store. 3 kids ended up getting arrested for setting that one. That one was a y'all come if Ive ever heard one... they had everyone and their brother there.

    Well manpower has gotten to such a critical stage that everyone is running mutual aid. Our great legislators down in Albany just have a blind eye to what we need for help... Like a law that stops from employers from firing their employees for responding to a call. So things just get worse..... Thanks for the update... As for the danger of the mutual aid depts responding.. well they might be the first on scene, because you can't get a piece out these days..
