Proby No More

This weekend we're having a garage sale at our fire hall to raise money for the department, so last night I headed down to drop some items off and to help get everything organized.  To my surprise, I was greeted with handshakes and congratulations.
 
I missed our monthly business meeting because of school last Monday; it turns out that it was announced that myself and my four fellow probies were voted on as official members of the fire department.  This is a photo of my new helmet!  All five of us received new lids instead of previously worn ones.  Money does not grow on trees on volunteer firefighting property, so this was a very nice surprise.  I'm lucky to be part of a great department with great firefighters; I was also extremely lucky to have such a great group of probies to go through training with.
