The Rheems1 Photo Collection
It was a beautiful day for shooting and I had a wonderful time, Lackawanna County is so packed with firehouses that we spent a whole day and didn't drive more than 8 miles from where we started the day out at (if we drove that far). It is an amazing area to shoot in and I can promise we will be back, hope you enjoy the pictures until next time <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Big Grin' />

We found the chief's house while driving through town, we stopped and knocked on the door and he pulled out the apparatus of the East Side out and than went about making calls to set up the rest of the Archbald stations... we would not have gotten any of the Archbald stations without his help and it was really, really appreciated. He also drove us around to each station to make sure we found it ok and to make sure things went smoothly at each department. A huge thank you needs to be extended to him!!

This piece is painted Cadillac Escelade White and Orange, the paint job cost an extra $15,000.... the white is more of a tan than a white, very hard to describe!

   IIRC from my GM Parts days,the Escalade Color is called "White Diamond or White Diamond Tri~coat".  Somewhat like a Pearlescent  finish. Actually a very pretty color.

Finally got to go out and about photographing again, this time with my good friend Josh (Jknoll52 on here)... he is from Lebanon County, Pa and is a former Lebanon County Dispatcher and is an all around good guy.  He set us up with a good portion of Lebanon County for photographing, we ran into clouds 1/4 of the way through the day so some of these pictures are not well light/well posed with sunlight shots.  Having said that, a non-sunlit shot is better than no shot in my book... so here goes!

Fell behind in posting or maybe lost interest for a bit, but we finally have access to Photobucket at work so I am going to start posting pictures again.  Jknoll52 and I went out and about on a few trips this year, it seems that we wind up running into clouds for part of each trip for some reason but still a fun time.  Some of these will be well lit and posed shots (I am trying my hand at posing, sometimes I get it right and other times I don't..be kind, I am trying).  Here are some pictures from our recent trips starting with my favorite department I shot this year!
