Sooty face from fighting a fire!
Shawn's post-fire self portrait.
FINALLY, after ten years of having the training to fight fires...AND after two months of working as a firefighter, Shawn has fought his first life structure fire. He got called out around midnight last week to help a nearby fire department with a house fire. By the time the Harrisonville guys got there, the bulk of the fire was out. They spent the next two hours or so fighting hot spots inside the house, pulling down charred pieces of the house and putting out any small fires or embers that still remained lit. He said it was exhausting, but of course he was elated....and dirty.
