Yesterday my crew was ordered up to complete some trail work down in Vallejo. I got to go! No pack, and no tool with the exception of a tiny rake we call a monkey paw, I would be quality control at the back of the line. About an hour into the drive, we got a fire call to the Klamath National Forest. So we turned around to drop me off back at the base. Bummer!
Tomorrow though, I have to drive up to the camp up there (Happy Camp) to pick up my captain. So at least I get to see everyone. Or at least fire camp. It'll be awhile before I get to take part in one of those.
It's hot here. 91 degrees right now. Unpleasant humidity. But I'm back in the office for the time being. Can you believe I was actually happy to be helping out the crew pulling weeds this past week? It got me out of the office and let me hang out with all of them.
And now they're off to enjoy Happy Camp....hehehehe..... those of you who have been there get it.
