This afternoon we responded to another structure fire, a small cabin.
A combination of the remote location and a delay in reporting the fire, lead to the residence being a total loss.

Luckily no was injured, however it was believed the occupant was at home for a majority of the fire operations, thankfully he was safely located.

Thank you Asst Chief Conroy,
Capt. McCracken, and Lt. Gott for taking care of business while I was vacationing.

Thank you,
To our firefighters,
Also
