The heat (and the crowd) kept me from hanging around for all of it, but it was neat.  I got to see the Sheriff&#8217;s helicopter, chatted with the pilot of another air ambulance, and poked around some of the trucks and some of their gear.  I had to do this all alone because Carolynn was getting a foot soak and deep tissue massage.
