This was for a sports day that we had over here.  I was in a number of competitions to include the three point shoot-out.  I made it to the third and final round but that was my worst round and I did not win.  The bald guy is a fire fighter from Whiteman that I am here with.  His only goal was to beat me.  It was fun even if I did not win.

Fire stations

<<FD #1 south side.JPG>>      <<FD #4.JPG>>   <<FD #3 - end shot.JPG>>

Here are some pictures of our fire stations over here.  The first is our main station.  It is located on the flightline side of the base.  The two story behind is our bunk rooms.  Then there is station 4 that is that conex box looking thing.  That is a stand-by station that we rotate shifts throughout the day.  Then the trailer looking one is station 3.  We have one crew stay out there for 24 hours.  That one is nice because nobody bothers you out there.  You are probably wondering how we skipped number 2.  I don't have any pictures of that station.  We should be loosing station 4 in a couple of days to one week.  It is a temporary station while they do some repairs to the runway.  It will be a relief when that station is gone.
