Woman Critical After Rescue From Burning Home

It was a busy week in the area from a fire standpoint -- probably because the Chief was on vacation. Here are a couple of articles with details, and a photo taken by one of our firefighters of the Skinner Lake fire.

( We were third due on this fire; I spent my time overhauling in the upstairs and didn't even known until later that the first arriving guys made a rescue. )

( For a rural area, things stayed pretty busy all week. )

( Photo contributed by AFD -- taken during overhaul. )
