This morning I woke up to the sound of air brakes. I thought I had
been dreaming because nothing that uses air brakes would fit into our
tiny little parking lot. I went to the window to see a huge fire engine
turning around on a dime. Well, of course my first thought was something
bad had happened. There are only 8 apartments so we all know each
other, if not very well, at least, enough to look out for each other. It
turns out that they were just doing their yearly inspection. Whooooo!
Of course Lian saw the fire truck through the window, so of course we
had to get a closer look. Not to mention the very nice firemen were very
easy to look at and also warranted a closer look. (not that I noticed
or anything ). We tried to stay out of the way, but they went out their
way to be nice to and include my son. They even gave him a badge and a
tour of the inside of their truck. Awww! I wish the shot I took of them
had come out, but my batteries died just then.
That's my
white car in the window. You can see how close this truck actually is
to my car in the next pictures. The guy driving this truck did an
awesome job turning it around.
This is my car. You can how little room they had to maneuver.
Daddy and Lian got a tour of the inside.
Lian waves goodbye. He has been wearing his fire hat and carrying his badge ever since.
