[x635 4,066]

This morning, Monday November 20th 2006, I had the chance to shoot one of my favorite departments and types of apparatus.

This is one of my new favorite Aerialscopes. It's my TL-57 of New England.

Nice photos Seth! I think Tower Ladder 3 is indeed a beauty. I ain't seen her in person, but, from what I heard and (seen) she is great.

Speaking of the Pipes and Drums, they run a beautiful vintage Maxim Pumper. If you'd like, I"ll ship you the photos (and her twin rig, owned by the Fire Chief in Charlton as an antique), they are one of only a few Maxims with catwalks. Let me know if you're interested. (I think that rig used to be the Dive Unit)

When are you comin' to Hartford? If you're doin' it over the holiday, stop by and say ALOHA!
