Long Days

So my days have been long, oh so long, as I have been slaving away under the hot California sun...well, most days anyway. Awareness among most, I am assuming is present, as newscasts, radiostations, and newspapers abound with the Northern California Armagaedon.

Yes peoples, California is on fire, and it is all apart of some lightning strikes that began about two weeks prior. Unfortunately, myself and my engine have not been able to take part in the action due to the fact that engines work on a rotation list. There were engines ahead of us that were due to go off forest before us, so they saw the action first hand; although I have to say, the intensity of the fires, and the early summer fire danger, are large watchout situations for further blow-ups, as well as the duration with which these fires will burn.

Although we have not been involved in this Armagaedon, we were prepared for one here in Truckee, as weather predictions here in Truckee warned of dry lightning and there was a bit of panic in the air as resources were low...nothin happened, but darned if we were ready by gosh! We have been working 12 hour days and I am pretty tired and need a day off for shizzle..today is day 10 but I just thinking about that amazing check I will be receiving!!

So, happy fireworks y'all...this girl is hittin' the sack!
