Fire Engines!

Phone calls this morning resulted in a change of plans today. No raspberries to pick right now so we are not making jam today. Instead it was off to Frankenmuth, Mi. to Heritage Park for the Great Lakes International Antique Fire Apparatus Association’s fire engine muster.  Antique fire engines lined the Cass River demonstrating their pumping ability

Jazz walked the grounds looking over all the different models and years!

Jay took time to explain the different attributes of the different engines.  It gave us a little more understanding about the displays.

An enjoyable afternoon doing something we don’t normally do.

About Momma

I was 77-years-old on February 22 and I'm amazed to see it. Mother of two sons and one daughter (Bloggers SEB and Cindyisms are two of them). Grandmother of three. Retired after 29 years+ at Michigan Bell Telephone and ten+ years with The Oakland Press. I was active with the telephone company union and a Dale Carnegie graduate. I work at crocheting, knitting, making ornaments, and other projects. With my husband I can 300 or 400 half pints of jam, chutney, plus cabbage relish, pickled beets and cinnamon fruit every summer to give away. I was clown doing parades, parties, and picnics for about 15 years. My other passions are music from the 50s through the 70s, reading, and of course blogging!

  1. To think those actually put out fires.  Of course, the buildings weren’t more than 20 stories tall back then.
    Looks like a nice time.
    Were elephant ear treats available?  I gotta be finding me a place where I can get one this summer.  Yummy yum yum..
