Things are good here. Just got back from helping dad put a new garage door opener in. Those things are kind of pain to assemble sometimes but we got it all in ok.
Good here Troy.
How are you?

Garage door openers aren't too bad.
Good to see it went OK for you.

It's a newer thing Troy. A couple months ago I started training. Still have a lot of training to do, but they are getting me in the swing of how it all works first. I get First Responder training, and of course Fire Fighter training. After that I plan on going to get EMT training...

I am a volunteer, yes. Paid on-call technically...

It's for the city of Brooklyn Center though.

Cool stuff Dave! I have a friend from high school join the volunteer FD in one of the small towns where I grew up. It's pretty cool to hear what his training entails.

Hopefully we never have to use it Troy!

Jake, it's been interesting so far. I have a lot to go yet.

Mike, I hate sway bar links on those things. Peek at the bushings too, really common on those...
