Thank you for the friendship and photo comments, Cristina. It is truly an honor.
Hey Cristina!!! No apologies necessary, family comes first. Hope none of your calls were too catastrophic. We've been quiet at our station lately (Uh-oh!!!!! I just put the whammy on us by saying the "Q" word--LOL!). Hope to chat with you soon.
It looks like you have a great crew at your station. :-)
Hi Cristina. Where are you from? I am from a small volunteer FD in western Oklahoma. Tom Horton
