**Fire Station Visit**

On Friday we went to the fire station!

We were fascinated by the fire pole!

Fire fighter Bartelson showed us around the station and explained what a fire fighter does!

The tires on a fire truck are ALMOST the same size as a kindergartner!

We all got to take a turn sitting in the fire truck!

We even got to try on their headphones!

He showed us what fire fighters look like when they have all of their gear on.

Then he gave us a high five, to show we shouldn't be afraid even though he looked different and even sounded different.

But our favorite was when they came down the pole!

We went outside and got to look at the big fire truck!

They put the ladder all the way up!!

He was SO high up!

We had so much fun and learned so much!

Thank you fire fighters!
