Valentines Day

One year ago today it was snowing on Morongo Valley and it was bitter cold. February 14 is my one year mark at MVFD. Looking back it has been a good year with lots of ups and downs. Anniversaries usually are a time to look back and become nostalgic but today is more than just my one year mark. Today is also my last Saturday here at MVFD. I have been offered a position at a city in the Bay Area as a firefighter/paramedic. It's a bitter sweet thing leaving here. I am going to be going to a department where I can provide a better life for myself and my family but I am going to miss working with the guys on my shift. Over the last year I have had the opportunity to work alongside and get to know some of the greatest guys. I have formed relationships that will probably last the rest of my life. It can be hard to be away from your significant other on Valentines Day (for the second year in a row) but I think it is a little fitting to be here at work today.

Happy Valentines Day
