nobody@vox.com(yapidka) — Fri, 29 Feb 2008 21:30:41 -0400

The crew for Ladder 1 was accommodating and kind when they pulled into Punta Gorda Fire Department Station 3 while I was taking photos in a desperate race against the sunset. They posed for pictures, let me photograph the truck and gave me a tour...

A couple new stops in an alternating Sunday routine

nobody@vox.com(yapidka) — Mon, 18 Feb 2008 11:58:10 -0400
