Where's There's Fire, There's Firemen!

It's one of those good news/bad news things.

The good news is that I saw firemen! In full gear! Carrying armloads of cool stuff. Like axes and picks and long pokey things. Dang, that's a great sight.

The bad news is they came out of the fire truck and the hook and ladder truck that was parked in front of my hotel as I was checking in tonight! Yeah, that's bad.

The good news is that they said it was a false alarm in a stairwell, but they had to check it out anyway.

The bad news is that they left after they decided the stair well wasn't on fire. Rats.

This is how my week is starting. As much as I love telling stories, here's hoping that the rest of the week will be a little more quiet.
