The Journey Continues...
Virginia
LYNCHBURG, VA
The journey to find and photograph fireboats and other interesting things
brought us out toward central Virginia. One stop was in Lynchburg, VA.
Lynchburg Headquarters Station 1
LYNCHBURG, VA
It is always fun when you find a great looking older fire house.
Lynchburg Station 6 built in 1912 and still in operation.
SMITH MOUNTAIN LAKE, VA
The journey out into central Virginia was to visit Smith Mountain Lake,
located
a little East of Roanoke. The man made lake has a very unique fire-Rescue
department
that is fully water based. The department is all volunteer and operates 8 boat
stations
around the lake. We were fortunate to have been able to get a great tour of most
of
the stations and boats on a beautiful chilly February day thanks to Chief Todd
Ohlerich.
