Thanks Firemen!








We joined Maddy and Danielle in downtown Kyle, for a visit from some firefighters. They gave a talk, took questions, blared the sirens and let the kids crawl all over the truck. For the grand finale, they hooked up the truck to a fire hydrant and hosed down half the block. It was pretty cool.

They cut their water-usage time in half, compared to previous hose-downs, as we are in a drought (um, every summer we experience a drought and people still act surprised when it happens, seriously). I'm glad they still did it, though, even for just a few minutes.
