Talk about good things coming in small packages. This was the second time our trip took us to a mobile/modular firehouse. The first was in Gulfport, and was due to the tragedy of Hurricane Katrina, this one was temporary due to the imminent opening of a beautiful new station.
Inside this one were three great guys, at the ready for the next call. Their new house sits on a rise within eyesight, and promises to be a wonderful new facility that we look forward to seeing.
Walking in the door, the first thing that struck us was the amazing aromas coming from the small kitchen. The table was set for six, and we were not allowed to do anything but relax.
These guys are no slackers in the cooking area! With Pepper leading the team, we think these guys could do just about anything they set their minds to. And they would do it smiling. 
The only truly sad part about this visit was that it was too brief. We had a great dinner and got to do the basics of the visit, but just as we were getting to the shirt off your back, the radio calls indicated that these guys were next to roll. So Pepper, in anticipation of the call, did the obligatory shirt off poses for us. Sadly, with it being so quick, we didn't get the best lighting situation. Hey Pepper, you're gonna have to do it again. hehe!
We seriously loved meeting all of you, dinner was perfect. And we appreciated the call later that evening that all was well.
Stay safe, take care of your team! See you in Colorado Springs!
Get your shirt collection going.
