Canada Day Pancakes with Men in Uniform.....Oh yes.

One of the Harrison Hot Springs activities that one could do was join the local Fire Department for a fund raising pancake breakfast. For donation we got coffee, juice, sausages, fruit and pancakes. Yum. Looked like they were doing business as we got there a little late but it was still going hard with every table full. The photo below was taken afterwords. But that is the HHS fire house.
This is what it was like in full. We chatted with a nice local couple who gave us some good tips on hikes in the area. Very friendly town. We were short on cash for the suggested donation but it was no problem. On the back row you can see all the uniforms. I don't know what they would have done if there was an emergency.
Especially as they were giving rides to everyone who wanted one on their fire engine. Did we go? Obviously. I had never ridden in a firetruck before although Geordie has in Pinawa. Also I have a thing for flirty men in uniform including emergency personnel. They were a really fun bunch. I think emergency personnel get the short end of the pay and media stick sometime so I always try to support.
