DAY 1

DAY 1 STARTED OFF VERY EARLY AT OUR STATION. WE LEFT THE STATION AT 5 AM. WITH TRAVEL TIME SOME BAGGAGE PROBLEMS AND RENTAL CAR PROBLEMS WE GOT TO WEST HANCOCK AT AROUND 2 PM. WE UNLOADED OUR STUFF SPLIT THE CREWS WITH 1/2 GOING TO THE SUPER WAL-MART AND THE OTHER 1/2 CLEANING THE TRAILER UNPACKING AND GETTING REACQUAINTED WITH OUR TRUCKS AND SURROUNDINGS. WE HAD ONE CALL FOR A WOODS FIRE IN LA. THAT TURNED OUT TO BE UNFOUNDED. NOT A BAD TRAINING RUN IN THE ENGINE FOR THE 1ST HOT RUN OUT. THE EVENING HOURS WHERE SPENT WITH OUR FRIENDS FROM DOWN HERE GETTING CAUGHT UP AND DISCUSSING WHAT PROJECTS WE WOULD DO WHILE WE ARE HERE. BELOW ARE PICTURES OF THE ENGINE WITH OUR GEAR ON HER AND PICTURES OF THE ROOM THE CHIEF WANTS US TO FINISH SO FUTURE CREWS CAN MOVE IN AND LIVE IN THE STATION. THEY NEED TO GET RID OF THE TRAILER WE ARE LIVING IN TO PAY SOME BILLS. BE SAFE AND I WILL POST TOMORROW.

THE CHIEF IS ALWAYS DOING SOMETHING HE CANT SIT STILL FOR ONE MINUTE.

THIS WILL BE THE NEW BUNKROOM.
