I must say that I have the utmost respect for the fire guys an gals. The other night while watching the news there was a piece on how several firemen rushed into a home and rescued 3 kids from certain death. When interviewed they were very matter of fact about it. A few mins later the news guys did a clip on how people do not clear the fire hydrants of snow and ice so the firemen can find them. It showed some of the same firemen shoveling out the hydrants.
So I'm thinking of all the talent with lots of time on their hands on this forum someone may come up with another way to help these guys clear the hydrants that doesn't require back breaking shoveling. I came up with a 3 foot dia alum trash can with a 2 inch connection on the side that will plug into the trucks exhaust pipe. Just tip it over the Hydrant and let the snow melt. Next time you are bored on shift think about how a better system would work. We can put a rover on Mars but are still shoveling snow.
