Dave was elected Fire Chief of our little town (~2100) on Thursday. I'm happy for him, but since he held this position in the last town we lived in, I realize just how much work it is.
Congrats Dave! :smball:
One of my brothers is a fire fighter, and I have such great respect for those who are willing to serve our communities in such a position. May it go well for you!
Dh has only been on this dept. for 2 years, but was on when he was married before for ~5 years (that was back in the 80's). When we lived in the next town over he was on for 7 years, 3 of which he served as chief. I'm really not looking forward to the extra time commitment, but he's already talking about setting up a little play area for ds in his office so that when he's working on paperwork he can take Isaac. It's a volunteer dept., and they don't see a lot of action, but they are very big into training and are prepared for absolutely everything. I'm very proud of his commitment to being a firefighter!
WTG Dave :thumb: Wendy, I know it will mean more time away from you and Isaac but if men like Dave didn't do these jobs we would all be a huge creek :hug2: Thanks to both of you
Congratualtions Dave! You must be so proud of him, Wendy!
