Project 52 – Week 11 – March 21st – March 27th, 2010

Since Life happens whether you want it to or not, it happened all at once for me and I was not able to capture any photos for weeks 9 and 10, I am hoping that the photos for week 11 will make up for it. I was on my way to Belmond, Ia to spend the weekend with my extended family, as we got closer we noticed that there was a big fire. We discussed whether it was in town or north of town, as we got closer we realized it was in town. We bypassed Gram and Gramps house and drove straight into town to locate the blaze. It was a training exercise in which the Belmond Fire Department had started and controlled the fire in the old Hill Motel (recently called the Cozy Inn) to help train and build the skills of the firefighters. It was a sight to see and smell and feel. An experience for all the senses.
