Onondaga County, NY
#1
I recently met up with Eric Fellows (Eric's Fire Pics) along with our sons for a weekend tour of Onondaga County in central New York. 

Onondaga County is a diverse county, with a very active urban department (Syracuse) and a large number of volunteer and composite stations covering dense urban to very rural districts.

Friday afternoon we met at the Plainville Fire Department station 1, where the department brought all 7 vehicles from their 3 stations together for group photos.

Engine 4 runs from station 1 and is a 2012 Spartan/4 Guys 1750/1500

Once we were finished at Seneca River, the storms moved in and that was it for day 1!

Saturday morning we went to the Brewerton Fire Department where we met the chief at station 1. The clouds were playing with us all morning as we toured along.
