I LOVE this photo!! |
If you look close you can see them working.... |
Pnut insisted on going home and getting his fire suit and helmet on at this point. He was tired of just watching and wanted to get in on the action!!
The Captain was awesome...when he saw Pnut in his suit he immediately said "We need to put you to work! Here, get in!" Pnut got to sit in the truck and the Captain showed him the computer with the GPS mapping program with all of the fire hydrants marked in all of the neighborhoods. He let him press the buttons for the siren and the horn. Pnut impressed him when he picked up a face mask and the Captain said "Thats the mask that attaches to my air tank" and Pnut asked "I thought it was called an SCBA...why do you call them air tanks?" The Captain looked at me with a shocked look! LOL! I replied "All 4 year olds know what SCBA's are, right? I wasn't kidding when I said he was a fire groupie!!"
We loitered long enough that the crew had completely put the fire out and began their equipment cleanup. Pnut was in AWE! One of the guys stopped to let him hold the nozzle and even explained how their special thermal camera helps them put the fires out. SO COOL!!
Great job Bluffton Fire Department!!!
