What's a fire station without a dalmation?
I named someone's dalmation, Helen.
"Helen Dalmation"

But they are very poor. No money for anything.

Who paid for that fire station? That's a good-sized park and there
are mutiple vehicles parked at most trailers. I see a good size
playground, community center, is that a pool (?) and a lot of double-wides.
Sure doesn't look to me like a place where the people have "no
money for anything." The VFD guys I dealt with up at Moss Lake
are mostly farmers driving very old trucks and they have fund raisers
all the time for all kinds of reasons and they do pretty well raising
money for their department. A couple of bucks from each trailer
at the park would pay for a pole to put that siren up.

Looks better from a distance - but so do I!
A number of trailers are abandoned, others not in good shape.
Lots of poor and illegal immigrants.

From the rooftop, which is the least costly location, it will be heard well.
Maybe in the future it can be pole-mounted.

I prefer Google Earth because I don't particularly like Windows Live Local (No I'm not a Microsoft basher), because of the lack of caching capabilities.
Thanks to Hellstra, Windows Live Local doesn't perform to well down under in an isolated country town.
