Only in Oklahoma do we get Christmas Eve training in short sleeves and sunshine. While most people are checking the oven, our crews were checking pumps and practicing water flow, according to the Stillwater Fire Department's Facebook post.
Nothing like the smell of diesel, sunscreen, and holiday spirit all in one afternoon. The job doesn’t wait for cooler weather, and neither do we—Santa might need SPF 30 this year, as reported by the Stillwater Fire Department.
Stay safe and stay hydrated this holiday season. If you see a fire truck out today, give them a wave—they’re still on duty, just a little more sunburned than usual.
