At the end of my Mountain Rescue team's Tech Rock 1 training this past weekend, Brian came up to me while we were packing up camp and just blew me away with his comments. He said that he was impressed by how comfortable, calm and composed I was on the litter lowering. (Think of a patient strapped to a backboard, on the top of a cliff, with me, the litter attendant, hanging below them from a rope, all dangling off of cliff in the middle of nowhere.) He said that he thought I'd do very well on the Mountain Rescue team and was really looking forward to working with me.
Such a surprise! He really caught me off guard, and certainly didn't need to pull me aside to say all of that. He really <i>wanted</i> to tell me it all!
I am so glad I found this team. This is going to be sweet!
