Just got the call about an hour ago. They want us back in Port Alberni for Thursday.

It's going to be fun getting there from Calgary, especially when I have to work my last shift at the hospital tomorrow.

Apparently the Prince George area is experiencing increased fire activity and once we get fire ready that's where we're headed.
