Sunday
Yesterday we got demobilized form the Tecolote fire. After checking out, resupplying, gasing and washing vehicles we headed back to Canon City. Out of a possible 14 day deployment we were there 5 days (travel days don’t count). I was really bummed. Camping and working is really exciting and energizing. I never felt tired or worn down even though I should have. I was also just at the point where I was getting comfortable with the crew, and starting to come out of my shell, and was looking forward to continuing the deployment. On the way back to Canon City we stopped at a rest stop and Alfonso told us that we had been reassigned, and that after a night in Canon we would be heading out to another fire. Today we are going to the Medano fire, which started near the Great Sand Dunes and at last measurement was 4,300 acres. Since its in our district we’re hoping for some really great assignments.
