"Extended Family" Dinner

Last Sunday Eric and I invited our "extended" family over for dinner. I had Katie bring up the kids and Eric invited on of the crews from MBA. We try to keep a very close relationship with the members of the other emergency services in the area. While we were getting ready for dinner one of our local CHP officers stopped by and we invited him to stay as well. It must have looked funny to people driving by the station. We had our rigs in the apparatus bay with the bay door open, and we had a CHP unit and an ambulance parked out front. Had a TC happened then we would have been one giant responding caravan. Fortunately the citizens of Morongo Valley cooperated and we had a great meal. For those that are interested, we had carne asada tacos.
