Small Town America

In small town America, great things happen.  I love it when ordinary people do extraordinary things.  At a small fire station in a small community, a family made the decision to honor another family member by providing the funds for a new fire truck to be purchased in his honor.  The honored one has volunteered at the station and has volunteered for many other things for many years.  The community knows that if ever help is needed this man will always be up to the task.  At this very special event.....the community turned out ...for him.  

                                         Volunteer and paid fireman alike, respond when called. 
                                                                                                                              

                                                       Everything clean and in order.

At this fire station....they name their trucks.  The new truck has been named Bubba 1!

The candles on this cake were lit and the cake nearly burned while we waited for all of the kind words to be said.  But no fear....the fire sirens came on and in an instant a fire truck with fireman showed up to "take care" of the fire!   All in fun!

Fireman came  to see the new truck and honor their friend.

Consider volunteering....at anything.  Volunteers have made America great.

Say a prayer of thanks today....we really do live in the greatest country in the world.  Blessings to you from the pasture!
