I Got Mail

This evening has been a great night! It started with dinner. We had salad! Now most people would be like, "Big deal. Salad." But it is a big deal! It was a wonderful salad! It had spring greens, blue cheese, cucumbers, pepperoncinis, tomatoes, red onions and tossed in oil and vinegar! Yum! It's been awhile since we've had any fresh food mainly because the weather has been so bad that we couldn't get anything. Then I found out I had mail! Glorious mail from home! It wasn't any of the boxes I'm waiting for but I'm not going to look a gift horse in the mouth! It was a card, several cards from my sister and her family (thank you Lisa!) and a book ("A Higher Call") from Greg! Awesome! Hey, that's BIG News!! Then when I got to work I actually got a call! It was for an ice machine that smelled like smoke in one of the bars. Oh yeah, I think the Fire Department needs to check that out! Hey it's exciting! It was my second call of the season! Then another C-17 came in so I had to make my announcements on all channels- "Attention all stations, attention all stations, this is the Firehouse with an uncontrolled aircraft arrival announcement. The C-17, Ice 15 has arrived Pegasus Airfield. This aircraft will be departing after completion of ground servicing. Please contact the Firehouse on Channel 5 for all intended movements on Pegasus Runway." Yep I am ATC Ground Control! SO MUCH FUN!

I got to do a short hike out to Hut Point on Thursday. Here's some pictures.
