New Career Path

Well, well... we're moving on from pirates, back to firefighting! It's comforting to know Kiefer isn't aspiring to be a pirate when he grows up.

(I don't think Miss Dana has a car big enough for approximately 80 kids, all who require carseats.) Aside from that detail, the rest of his recount seemed incredibly legit and he was excited!
