We got to visit the new firehouse in town! We learned a lot! We learned that pumper trucks are called "engines", trucks without water are called "trucks", and trucks with both a bit of water and the tall ladders are called "quints". Sky learned about how heavy the fire gear is as she tried it on.
We learned that even though a firefighter may look scary in their gear, we should still go to them in a fire (and not run away or hide). Brad had to hold my hand during this demo.
The new firehouse has a pole even though it isn't used (nostalgia I guess).
Lila had a little chat with the fireman and was very proud of her fire badge.
Brad had fun looking at all of the valves on the truck and he had a man to man talk with the firefighter. Sky asked really excellent questions the whole time and kept the firefighters busy explaining everything. It was a good time had by all!
