Jim, no thanks. If you only knew how excited I was when I found out you were going up there. It meant alot. Its a honor to know the quality of firefighters like yourself, Brian and the Cheif and be able to call you guys brothers and friends. I knew that you, Spencer and Brian would get the most out of it. And for Ray to have a chance to work with you guys, so you can continue training our firefighters here... It was well worth it. Sorry I couldn't come up, but I knew that Tony and Ray would treat you well. I've been in and around the fire service all my life, and I know when someone has the passion for the job. So actually I should thank you for going. I hope next year you'll go too.
Sincerely you friend and sis
Jennie

What props are you using? Trying to simulate? I use a few vapor props due to the fact that it is what we are trying to teach. Other props are liquid leaks for the same reason. I'd like to talk more about it, but I need more info to be clear on an explanation. Biggest thing I can tell you is make them as real as you can. I'd be glad to give you whatever pointers I can.
