On Wednesday my classmates and I headed down to Anniston, AL to the US Department of Homeland Security for FEMA disaster training! How official and fancy does that sound?? It was 3 days of riding on a huge charter bus, sitting in a class room listening to lectures on bombs & terrorists, hands on experience, really funny instructors, playing pool, dressing in fun suits & more than enough fried food than I need for a life time.
Yep everyone got their own name tag...I know.. Official and fancy!
Dummy's in the HAZMAT suits!
Ring around the rosy break. Those are 2 of my professors
I also played pools with some friends. I am world champion pool player as evidenced by the picture below... I may or may not be moving the pool balls to my advantage. :)
we got to dress up in level C HAZMAT suits! I think I am the one on the far left?
2 of my good friends and I!
The trip was a lot of fun! I learned way more about bombs and terrorists than I ever wanted to know, but at least if something crazy happens then I will know what is going on.
Wow--sounds like a fun and crazy experience! That suit would be a perfect Halloween costume :-).
