Door

Today's photo topic is "Door."  I was trying to figure out which door I wanted to get because basically all our doors look the same.  After an eventful evening, I decided to take a picture from the view of our door.

As I was cooking dinner, I see a small EMS fire truck pull up right at the end of our driveway.  I wondered if they were coming to check on the fire hydrant that is located by our mailbox.  I went to the door to see if there was anything I could help them with, but I didn't see where the person was.  Seconds later, I heard sirens.  I went back inside to continue dinner.  Out the window, I saw the ambulance and fire engine show up.  The crews went into the house next door.  I realized that Travis would be getting home any second so I went ahead and gave him a call to give him a heads up and let him know I was ok.  It looked like they were at our house and I know I would have panicked if I arrived home to that sight! 

Turns out that there was some sort of emergency at our neighbors house.  They took the husband out on a stretcher.  The wife and son followed the ambulance so I was unable to see if there was anything I could do.  Hopefully everything turns out ok.  My adrenaline was running just from seeing the lights and hearing the sirens, so I can only imagine how their family felt.
