Day Four Fire House Visit
















Missy and Thom are leaving Las Vegas tonight. So, one more full day and then life goes back to the way it was. I have this horrible feeling that Missy and Thom are going to take a flight somewhere else....










Since Dave is the Safety Director he is the chief for the fire department. We decided to take advantage of that and give the kids a little tour. The guys on duty were terrific, giving us full access to all the trucks. We went in the ambulance, sat in the fire truck, saw the tanker trucks. Dave showed the kids how the firemen hang all their hose lines to dry them out. Tommy was quite interested in that! ?We even saw a big tow truck getting one of the ambulances hooked up. Must have worked too hard and needed a rest! (I know how that ambulance feels....) The kids got little fireman hats and coloring books and stickers. When they were in the ambulance they each received a toy.








Al and Jessica met up with us and then came over afterwards to try and coax the kids into eating. Didn't go well. Oh well, must be nap time. Note Jessica's nice birthday purse.....
