I am amazed at how the Yonkers Fire Department is able to operate with the number of hills and narrow streets they have. I don't know if this was the case at this job. I have never been to any other city that has to deal with this like Yonkers does.

  It can't be easy setting up those ladders or getting the rigs through those tight spots. Put a few feet of snow on the ground and now it's much worse.

I don't know if it matters, but I'm pretty impressed.
