163 is back

163 is back in Cedarburg. It will be put back into service on Saturday.
It was a busy day today otherwise. The radio room is another set closer to being complete with some new technology. Station 2 got some bottled water delivered to it. 163 also was washed and got new seatbelts installed.

The Clubhouse Gangs mojo has been seriously hurt over the last few months. Engine 163 has been out of service since late February to receive a new water tank. However, it should be back in service in the next week. Without an engine there has been no point in going out to stand guard and the Brewers have not been entertaining to watch. In the time that Engine 163 has been gone there were three working fire calls. The last two occurred in the past three weeks. One call was for mutual aid to Grafton on a lightning strike, the other call was a house fire on the east side of Cedarburg. Both fires were taken care of quickly by the responding crews.

The summer will be upon us soon. Since there will not be any new trucks to put together it seems as though it could be a quite summer, outside the fact that Washington Ave. is all torn up. Also the beginning of June will mark 5 years of Station 2.

Postings should be more regular now that classes are done.
