Side-by-side inspections today at the ambulance factory. Ocean Park VRS' new 124 next to Kempsville's new 923.
Finally got to inspect the new 923 as it came off the assembly line in Orlando, after having to abort last week due to the nor'easter. #KVRS #Kempsville
Little known fact: In the VB Rescue system, every ambulance is owned by one of the volunteer rescue squads. I'm on my way to the factory to inspect a desperately needed new ambulance for Kempsville.
It's Kempsville Rescue shuffleboard social night!
None of the 11 candidates in yesterday's #NJ11 Dem primary currently has above 30% of the vote.
So, the winner will emerge victorious despite ~70% of voters supporting someone else.
#RankedChoiceVoting ensures winners have majority support.

Just learned that a new Potbelly Sandwich Shop at Fairfield Shopping Center has a tabletop featuring our logo! I know where I'll be eating frequently!
Proud of the new VB Rescue EMT Academy graduates (in orange) who are planning to come to Kempsville Volunteer Rescue Squad!
Strong tail winds all the way from Churchill. Home again, getting re-acclimated to the tropical 30 deg F weather. Gonna hit the sack as soon as possible.
Petr says this was Churchill's 2nd pre-fab building, and it has been moved 3 times due to flooding.

High thin clouds deny us detail in the moon, but we could still see our shadows in the snow.
Our wildlife guard on the snowshoe walk. We have a shotgun man on every outing. The polar bears are more likely to be out on the Hudson Bay ice floe hunting seals, actually.

That's Jupiter near the top left.
Still no Aurora, just a crisp moonlit night. This is from outside Churchill.
"Far" north...
Watching a soap bubble freeze. It was actually pretty mild at this time -- 3 deg F with only an occasional breeze
