This & That from Here & There

[GA_Dave]

Last Wednesday, I took a drive down to south Georgia.  One of my stops was to update apparatus from Albany.  All of the previous apparatus I have photographed have been replaced as front line units.  They operate from 11 stations.  I began at Station 1, where I hoped to discover what was where in the rest of the stations.  It turns out that there was some big bridge dedication ceremony that day and the two newer aerials I would have photographed were set up on display with a large flag between them and that they would remain there until late afternoon.  I also discovered that 10 of their 11 engines are running nearly identical rigs.  Engine 10 was standing by at Station 1, so I photographed it and headed north.
