Another fire under our belts

Well we just got back from another Airizona Fire. This one was down by sedona....if any of you know where that is. Anyway we got there thursday nigt found some grass to sleep on and got up bright and early on Friday morning to head out to the fire. The fire started the afternoon before and had burnt quite a bit of land alog with almost burning down lots of mutli million dollar homes but I don't think any of the homes burnt and we had the fire pretty much under control by that night. But there were these horrible little beetles that come out after fires that almost killed us. Normally they aren't that bad on fires but this fire was something else. I think that I lost my sanity numerous times because these stupid bugs were trying to attack me and cause me to go mentally insane. Thankfully we didn't have to go back out there today cuz it was bad enough with the 103 heat yestrday and today was even hotter.

we are back in the grand canyon today and are going to work tommorow on the fuels project and then we are heading home on tuesday morning. so i will finally get some days off on thursday and firday. One of the good points of my job is that we cant work more than 14 days straight( not including time that we travel) so really it will be like 18 days of working straight, but then on our days off one of them will be a paid day off.

well it is time for me to go see if I can find any hot guys to hang out with tonight (prob wont happen) really i am going to go and have one more beer and then hit the hay.
