Loved my visit to the Bytown Fire Brigade Museum yesterday.
What a great historical centre, highlighting Ottawa's proud firefighting history.
Thx to Peter McBride for the tour, along with Chief Hutt.
Another amazing Pumpkinfest yesterday...pumpkins everywhere, even being launched from an Ottawa Fire ladder truck.
Thx to Marianne and all volunteers for such a fun afternoon in Ernie Calcutt Park.
