Day 110 of 365 - Jaws of Life

Gallia County EMS is one of the few EMS systems that still does extrication. Most areas the fire department does the rescue. As the weather gets worse drive safely. I really hate using these.

Tomorrow night the time change is upon us. It is a reminder to change the batteries in your smoke detectors. Changing these batteries could save your families life. Every year people die in house fires because the batteries in their smoke detectors were dead. So as the temperature begins to drop, go get some batteries this weekend to change the ones in your smoke detector.

This is the cylinder and valve of my toy steam engine. The steam engine still works and from what I can tell it is from the 1930's. I am not sure if it is a Weeden Steam Engine or a Holly Overtype. I love the craftsmanship of an item that was considered a toy.
