Ashley and I save the day!!

Ashley and I were coming back from visiting Jay, Jeri and Lane at the hospital when we spotted a fire at our friends office (Exit Realty). It was in one of those cigarette butt holders. You know the kind...it has a long, thin neck with a hole at the top to put the cigarette in and a large base.


















Well, apparently the base had not been emptied in quite some time, there was smoke billowing out of it. Ashley dumped the entire contents of her diet soda into the base, but it just seemed to piss the fire off. It didn't slow the smoke down one bit.

Ashley called 911 and reported the fire and I called Cindy Armour-Helm to tell her we were rescuing her building.

Keep in mind that this was a small deal...no flames, just a ton of smoke. A minute later the fire chief showed up and then a minute after that...the fire truck came with about 10 firefighters!!

I found this whole thing very amusing and Cindy listened on the phone in amazement. I snapped a few pictures for her.
