Cross your fingers!

Last wednesday Matt had an interview with a UFRA (Utah Fire and Rescue Academy) for a Dromedory Crew AND a Hand Crew! This is something that he has always wanted to do!!! If he gets the Dromedory Crew he would be doing project work around the state clearing land for developments and if there is a fire instate he will get to go. This will give him a LOT of experience with the chainsaw (he wants to be a Sawyer) which will give him a jump start for next season. But if he gets the Hand Crew he will get more experience on actual fires, as the travel all over the west. I'm stuck between which one I want him to get because I know he will love either! It will be hard having him gone for weeks at a time and home for a couple days, so he will be missed but I know it will be good for him and will help him get ahead in his career. So we are excited to hear back but please cross your fingers (and send some prayers our way) that he will get the job that will help him the most!
