St Baldrick's

Yesterday I shaved my head for the St baldrick's fundraiser. I brought in $800!! A bit short of my goal but something is better than nothing. This is my 2nd year doing this. Next Year will be better. I have put a few photos up for your amusement.

WORKING FIRE

Caught a fire right before the end of my 24. 1st Truck to a vacant 1 1/2 story residential. Heavy fire throughout the attic.

We went home about 90 minutes after getting there.

Hello there. Many generations of Firefighters here. My father in-law is a retired FF. I have two brother in-laws that are Lieutenant's and my step daughter is a Firefighter.My husband is a Captain. I am a retired/disabled Chief. (not really "disabled" cause I do work full-time)
Anyway......just wanted to say hi. Will be in Chicago in August for business but wanted to check out a firehouse or two. Are they "stranger" friendly?
I'm friends with some of NYFD folks but I know if they don't know you they can be mighty cold if you just show up at one their houses. Are Chicago firefighters like that? Should I head out of town to a volunteer fire department? I intend to bring some patches if that helps.
Be safe out there!
