I didn't want to get shafted out of the cash for more raffle tickets and thus didn't attend. We couldn't make it over this year, but will definitely make more than just a one-day trip out of it next year. See you around.
I work in Engine 68. I was in Squad 61 for two years, but I left. I know a lot of guys in R-1, what is your buddy's name?
