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.

Favorite Pictures

Here are a few pictures of the past that I really like.

Gracie and me at the park at a birthday party:
Summer of 2007, a Nascar racing car was in town:
One of the CPR classes I taught:
One of our training burns:
Another training burn:


Gracie wearing daddy's boots:


Carson and Gracie sitting on a shelf in Circuit City while we were shopping for a printer:


Gracie and Daddy racing down the slide: Gracie climbing up to the slide:

Carson and Gracie ready to go down the slide.

The leaves are a feature on my camera.

That slide is in Eastern WA, across the road from Roy's grandparent's house.
