Fire

Arrived home from work to a fully involved house fire up the street. No one was hurt thankfully, the dog made it out but the home is destroyed. Very sad. Such a tremendous loss. Here are some photos of Saskatoon's finest and bravest at work. Sure glad that wasn't my son on that iffy roof fighting that fire.
Wait!
That is exactly what my son does!
I tried to convince him to be an engineer but it didn't work.
While they were not able to save the home, they did privent it from spreading.

 They seemed to put out one hot spot and another erupted. Take a look at the chimney. See that little flame? It got big really fast!

They had the fire under control and out in less then 2 hours. I am very proud of these young men.
Did you know that the starting wage for these brave firefighters is $21/hour? It takes a lot of years before they make a decent wage.
My son loves what he does. I think you have to.
Very sad day for this family.
