First structure fire as chief
Though I have been through this before as assistant chief - I got one of my very own last night and all the fun, joy, and NFIRS paperwork that goes with it.
Here's a link with some pics: http://www.smugmug.com/gallery/73113...70238576_uNAxq The home owner kept a pot of oil on her stove to cook with and went to boil the kettle for tea and accidentally turned on the wrong burner. She went into another room and lost track of time (was waiting for the kettle to whistle) and soon heard a loud bang. Returned to her kitchen to find it fully engulfed.

Great pics Jen. You're lucky, the person that takes our photos usually only shows up during daylight hours or after most of the action is over.

it was great. I was a little stressed in the very beginning when it looked like this:
and the hydrant was frozen and the radios were acting up... But once the interior attack team was able to make a little headway, it all fell into place.
