It occurred to us as operations were winding down in that fire that it was the second time. We looked at each other and it sunk in ? wow!

The rescue was the first 15 seconds of a job that lasted two hours. The fire went to two alarms.

These things happen every day across the city, firefighters doing their job. But I guess because it was two times in such a short period, we got attention.

Danielle was on fire. She really stepped up at a critical time for us.

The two of us were on fire every time we sat down to write.

The award is somewhat problematic for us because we are not greedy for money. For us, this has been a matter of following the contract.
