I’m enjoying some down time between my turn in the ‘burn building’ at the Dawson county fire department.

The last stage of my volunteer firefighting class will be a hands on fire training. They will light this building on fire, and we will be expected to put it out.

Tonight is just a saftey review, we are going over different nossel techniques as well as basic escape drills. There’s no fire but they’ve filled the building with fog/smoke (the type you see at a concert) to simulate a low visibilty environment.
