Wow…..here it is, the end of the month already.  And I haven’t even filled out my month-end checks yet.  Where did the days go?  We’ve been through a St. Patrick’s Day, an early Easter, and the advanced start of Daylight Savings Time.

Shouldn’t we be getting an extra paycheck after all that?

A different kind of “close call” event took place yesterday.  A hot fire on the Ocean City, Maryland, boardwalk broke out in the morning.  If you folks that are inland have never been to a seaside town with a boardwalk and commercial strip, then you can’t imagine the potential for disaster that awaits a flame.  Massive wood structures, confined exposures, limited access, etc.

If one of those babys gets away from you, it can literally devastate a community’s economy.  But the guys in O.C. put a terrific stop on yesterday’s blaze.  From looking at the pictures, I’d say it was magnicent.  Dave Statter at STATter911 was sticking with the story all day and he has a full collection of photos, videos and links.  Take a few minutes and check them out and see if you agree with me.  They’re on his website HERE.

I’ve got a bunch of things to sort out and then report back to you today.  But I need to get some more coffee first.

Let’s get the equipment checked out, then I’ll start in on the “fun stuff.”
