Fireman's Prayer

When I am called to duty, God,
Whenever flames may rage;
Give me strength to save some life,
Whatever be its age.

Help me embrace a little child
Before it is too late
Or save an older person
From the horror of that fate.

Enable me to be alert
And hear the weakest shout,
And quickly and efficiently
To put the fire out.

I want to fill my calling
And to give the best in me
To guard my every neighbor
And protect his property.

And if, according to my fate,
I am to lose my life,
Please bless with your protecting
My children and my wife.

Demolition Derby

Monday evening our family went to the Demolition Derby at the Fair! It was really good this year. The kids had a great time!

Before the grandstands filled up, I took a few pictures of the kids.


Gracie was having a hard time sitting still.

The result:
The car was so jammed under the bus they had to use a forklift to lift up the bus and push it away from the car.
More crashed cars:
