Good Morning. Today started with a Memorial Service for a fallen fire fighter.

Our prayers go out to his family. 

We must all remember, this an extremely dangerous line of work. Even the safest, most alert fire fighters can fall victim to mother nature. The wind shifts, the humidity drops, the temperature goes up.... any one of a wide array of factors can change your situation dramatically. Sometimes theses changes can occur very quickly. Sometimes they change so quick, there's no time to think... only time to react. Hopefully our reactions take us to a safe spot to avoid the wrath of mother nature. Sometimes mother nature wins. When she wins, we are reminded of how fragile and special our place on this planet is. 

Please stay safe.
