To Call 9-1-1 or to wait till DARK to call 9-1-1

It never seizes to amaze me the choices people make. From what am I going to wear to Should I or should I wait to call for help.

That old cliche phrase, " Men, NEVER stop for directions." Yep, kept quite a few people out of their comfy homes, hot meals, cold ice tea, IN THE RAIN in up to their elbows in POISON ivy, sumac, oak, spider infested, knee high water, all the while you were wanting an adventure moment. Well, as it all turned out. It was a fairly open minded useful day.

What I thought was going to be a clean slate ready to start window shopping at the local flea market for holiday craft ideas. Turned out to Low Level Repelling, 4x4 LOW driving across the river, to applying (compressed air foam system) CAFS on a fire. To grilling, searing, sitting down to eat to PUBLIC ASSIST 2 subjects are lost in the woods last GPS coordinates are this.

Are you kidding me? Really? Sigh, Glad I sucked down my food when I did. What turned out to be a public assist, turned into Launching of jumping thru hoops to get Game warden to make access to corp of engineers property, Getting PHI Med 2 launched for air search, borrowing fellow SO family members atv, Neighbors ATV, only to feel a sudden: oh my gosh, I cannot see the FF/PD anymore, I see NOTHING in the distance. OH what a feeling that was. NOt COOL at all. I will never forget the feeling of helplessness.

I will never forget how I couldn't get to the hikers fast enough with a warm blanket, or the looks on their faces. That look. That special gleam in the eye, souls connecting yet no words are being said look. was pretty awesome.

We used I think EVERY tool on that truck today. Every stinkin one. INCLUDING the ever famous BULLHORN. And, to DEP.EVANS, I completely agree with you and O'Brien. I DON"T NEED NO BULLHORN. bgawhahahahahah. Thanks to everyone that was party to the rescue, and atv driving awesome hero's. You are all my hero!

Now, if someone knows how to work this stupid QUICKBOOKS contact manager. I will buy you lunch, beer, dinner, whatever just for heaven's sake HELP recover my NAMES.. :)
