On a side note - did either of you make it to the serious MVA that FFD/AFD/PFD handled?

Haha, sorry Dan. My laptop with my media card reader crapped out on me today. I had to find other methods to get my pics on the computer.

As for the MVA, I had just gotten back home and was unlocking my front door when the tones dropped, and did not make it there.

and yes, I took in the auto accident...... Sounded really bad....... Didn't appear so......... Although Alamo transported one of the occupants of the vehicles from the scene in a rather hurried pace......

Great shots as always Bill, thanks for sharing! Even though "there wasnt much to see," its great to look at candid people and apparatus shots, shows the different aspects of the fire service.

I love the ladder placement as well. It always seems (from pics anyway) that PFD is very aggressive in their laddering at jobs.
