Firefighters & V-8s

[red spectra]

Attended a local firefighter expo/cruise today in a nextdoor town. Lots of vintage rigs and hotrods. Firefighters did several expos and events . We had bucketbrigades,hose fights w/the barrel on a wire,slice and dice of a car,fire engine rides for the kids(they made a fortune on those at $1 a person) and lots ofother cool stuff. Other half of the lot was a cruise in car show. Today was a blast. Enjoy........
