Fire department extrication

The other day we were driving to a estate sale and drove into Oklahoma.
We passed our exit so we had to turn around and go back into Texas. :)

The red river is a very good name for this river.

Back into Texas!

More pictures of the fire truck the fire department is building.


Now for Saturday.

Hooking up the tractor to move this 2 wheel truck onto 
the trailer to take it over to the fire station.

I thought it was so brilliant  how Nathaniel and Andrew loaded 
it up without having to use the winch.




This tractor made unloading the cars a lot easier.

Back at the house to pick up the red Honda for the extrication.

While Nathaniel, Andrew and Pop's were loading up the Honda 
they got a big downpour. I got into the truck just before it came.
Everyone had to go back to the house and change before going 
back to the fire station because they were soaked.

Most of the firemen in their gear ready to learn about cutting into 
vehicles. Quite a few people did not show up due to the weather so 
they just cut up one car and will save the rest for another sunny day.



Kevin takes a turn at the jaws to open the door,

It was so neat to watch Nathaniel teach the other guys
how to use the jaws. He's a really good teacher.


This vehicle was donated from Joe's shop for the extrication.

Afterwards Kenny (the fire chief) took everyone out to eat at DQ for dinner.
Regretfully I did not get any pictures of it. :(



Sunday our church handed out to all the mother's a rose
to show their appreciation towards them.
I thought it was SO sweet of them to give me one.


This rose bush Mamma W bought me from the Tyler rose garden.

I think it's absolutely lovely.

That's all I have for now!
