Smoke Jumpers are pretty popular heros out here. We took a tour of their base here in Grangeville. It was pretty cool. This is what they wear when they go fight fires. For those of you reading this that have no idea what they are...they are the first line of defense for forest fires out here. They parachute in and then dig, cut, etc to prevent fires from spreading.
Here is the plane they jump out of. Andrew really liked it.
Then, a week later, Abby and the boys watched them jump and parachute as an exibition for the elementary school. Fun stuff.
