A cool painting I found at Otronicon featuring some characters from Street Fighter.

I saw a posting that the Sedona Fire District was hiring reserve fire fighters / EMTs. They even paid for your training and gear. I thought, "what the heck?" and applied.
There were probably a dozen of the initial applicant.s I was stunned when I made it through the interview. It ended up being three of us who went to the next step - EMT school.
I spent months in night classes, and studied my ass off, though my studies were briefly interrupted by an emergency appendectomy. The final exam terrified me. Amazingly enough, I passed. One of my colleagues did not. Two of us went on to fire academy.
Here, we joined trainees from Verde Valley Fire District, Jerome Fire Dept., and Cottonwood FD. I was one of the oldest there, and the only female.
I kicked ass in the academics, and did OK in the practical aspects -- for a 5'4" out of shape chick. After months of training, and a few practice shifts, I passed the state Fire Marshall's exam. I was official.
I took a shift a month for a few months, long enough to determine that I wasn't cut out for this line of work. Most of our calls were medical -- not many fires / rescues / accidents. Also, you had to think fast and act like you know what you're doing, even if you don't, which just doesn't jive with an over-analyzer and doubter like myself.
Most importantly, you have to love it. You have to live and breathe EMS/Fire. I enjoyed it and I found it interesting. But I didn't love it.
So when I moved outside of the district, I left it behind.
I do miss the camaraderie and brotherhood. It truly is a family.

My son is a fighter; at 4 months of age he presented Infantile Spasms, partial complex seizures and reflux. He was born with a right eye ptosis and we had no idea what could be his disease. We had many help to pursue a diagnosis, and we finally had it: mitochondrial disease, more specifically Complex II deficiency of the Respiratory Chain. He is currently on ketogenic diet, still looking for his seizure control. Every day is a new day, and we will keep looking for a better quality of life to him surrounded by much love.

+++ looks great at Large
+ well what can I say, the Philippines is also a photographers paradise :) not just for landscapes but also people photography
+ I've travelled several locations in the Philippines for 3 weeks. Hectic but fun at the same time - one of the plus sides are that this countty has probably one of the most gorgeous faces I've seen - with varying degrees of poverty and wealth and that's already hard to fathom at one glance.
+ more photos to come...
++ no photoshopping, no cropping, just converted raw in Phase One Capture 6 but no adjustments
Title: K-Ville Volunteer Fire Station
Date: 1988
Location: Lakeland, FL
Description: Kossuthville, or K-Ville as it is popularly known, is a small village midway between Winter Haven and Lakeland. It was settled in the 1920's by a group of Hungarian immigrants, who named the settlement Kossuthville after Louis Kossuth, one of Hungary's national heroes. Volunteer fire fighters work with emergency and fire related services for small communities that may not have a paid staff.

My husband and me in front of a decommissioned jet parked on the Atsugi Naval Air Base. Yes, my husband can fix that engine, apparently. This was taken by my camera's self-timer.
The front part of a Hawker Hunter GA.11 fighter jet, "The Culham Hunter", restored by David Webb. At the Local Excellence Market, Abingdon.
The latest State of the Art fighter for the RoboForce. There's nothing like sitting on top of it all and hearing the roaring buzz coming from the front prongs, at least in the atmospheres where sound can flow.
Some of that greeble has a function as the handle of a maintenance hatch.
This is an alt-build using only pieces from the Robo Stalker, 2153. I originally wanted to make a Vic Viper and a separate land vehicle but the focus went into the ship, which also diverted a bit from the usual Viper proportions. Most of the remaining pieces were used for a repair station and rover.
