First Day of New Cycle for A Shift

A shift is on today, and so far it's been a rather slow saturday. Started the day with the usual routine, checking off the trucks, cleaning up the bio-dome here and heading to the local Kroger for edibles. It's pretty much rained all day today. Our bio-retention pond is at max capacity. If the water gets any higher, we may have to call the boys at 6 for the S.W.R. Team. Here is a picture of this modern marvel.

I know...you're so very impressed. That's how we roll at the Green House...lol. We are thinking of stocking it with fresh trout soon so get you rod and reels ready.

Late this morning Mulford got a call from his Fiancee. He had to leave early because she had to undergo emergency gall blader surgery. Last up date we got from him, she is doing fine and recouping at R.M.H. Our prayers and well wishes are with her for a speedy recovery.

With Mulford gone that left us short, so who did we end up getting to fill in but none other than Scott "Scooter" Hetherington from #7. Working with Scooter is always a good time and you always learn so much. Scooter, being the techno savy man he is, showed us his laster tech purchase. It's a cell phone add on. No....it's not the Blue Tooth alot of people out there have. Actually, I'm not sure what it's called. Maybe a Blue Whale Tooth. Check out the pic....

Yes, what you are looking at is an old school phone receiver plugged into a cell phone and yes...IT WORKS! It even has a button just above the mouth part(it's not very noticable in the pic) that actually hangs up the phone when you're done talking and will scroll through your menus. If only it came with a rotory dial.....now that would ROCK! Linda Jones was so impressed, she immediatly got online an ordered her one. Yes...you to can have one for the low price of just $24.99. Seems to me this is a step in the wrong direction...but what do I know?

Call wise, it's been pretty slow here. We've only ran one car into a light ploe out near the mall. No injuries and very minor damage. The guy driving believed his accident was caused by his NEW tires being slick in the rain. WHAT?!? We all know he was hauling a** down the exit ramp and lost it...lol.

The medic truck has been pretty slow today as well. I hope I'm not jinxing them by saying this. Only two calls but of course, one right before breakfast and the 2nd right before dinner.

As for Scott Bailey, he is still out with his ankle. 6 to 8 weeks last I heard. We was hoping he was going to give us another Loritab induced phonecall. He is a trip when he's tripping...lol. Get better quick Scott and welcome to the gimp club. Just so you know...we have a personal parking spot for you.....
That's it for us here at #3 or as our fav N.W. peeps call us...the Hippie House. If we have any more interesting calls we'll update the blog. Good night to all the Brothers and Sisters out there. Be safe and keep it on the road.
