thankyou lou, and to you and yours. 1973 for us, life is strange? when you go on a blind date with a mate and end up with 1st prize! ah those immortal words I said! can I see you again...time passes quickly, more's the pity, wonderful time's...
Here I am with my better half we dated for 10 years and have been married for 5 and the time is passing way to fast. The other picture is me in my 1930s 107th cavalry Ohio national guard uniform holding the first love of my life. Can you believe that picture was taken over the summer in Dennison, Ohio and the other is me 20 lbs later her cooking is the best. Gotta hit the gym soon.
Here's a still from some training we did last Friday night. I'm the good looking fellow in the front wearing the orange helmet, with the handline. There is a taller FF behind me, also wearing an orange helmet. We were simulating a ruptured line to a propane tank that had caught on fire. We were to advance two hoselines, pushing the fire back and off of us. Once we made it to the tank, the team leader was to reach up to the handle on the tank and turn off the gas. It sounded a bit like a jet engine at full throttle and was a tad warm. They would wait until we advanced almost to the "burning" tank and then let loose the valve at the top of the tank that simulated a pop-off valve. Here the fire is dying down, since the FF in the "yellow" helmet (it was actually white) is turning the shut off valve.
Luke, yikes nice doberman! those dogs use to chase me on my paper route! every day I had to fly past that house!
Haha...this one is more of a bark from afar type. I can't believe that he was ever as small as in this picture. He's a moose now.
Thank you Ray! she is a little angry at me for putting up that pic! that was from the trucking times so she wasnt made up!
I used to charge for those pictures, but in this state it seems you need a license to work in pest control.
