Fire Fighters: Red Horse Ravine Adventures pt. 3

By Bell, stand by all station. Attention! All districts of five-arm fire. Five Bells move in immediately. That's it! That's for... Firefighters! The true-to-life story of our unsung heroes who stand by ready to ride by day or night against our most murderous enemy, the demon of fire!

In just a moment, we'll join Trudy and Jimmy Collins and their friend Jack on their excursion-up Red Horse Ravine, an excursion that started out to be just a simple search for ferns, but which has turned into a far different kind of adventure.

While looking for botany specimens, the children have stumbled onto an old deserted mine high up on the side of the ravine. And although the supporting beams of the entrance appear rotted, they decide it would be exciting to explore the old horizontal shaft, a decision they have deep-caused regret as we shall learn right after we hear this important message.

Let's go, firefighters! Let's go to Red Horse Ravine, where Jimmy and Trudy Collins, with their friend Jack, suddenly find their botany expedition turned into a far different sort of adventure. While searching for ferns, they discover an old deserted mine. Its entrance, hidden by a dense overgrowth of bushes. After debating the possible danger, their curiosity

gets the better of them, and they cautiously advance into the dark, musty tunnel, which is where we find them right now. Gee, sort of spooky and dark in here, isn't it? Well, then don't be scared, Trudy. Just keep close to me.

I'll tell you what. I'll run out and see if I can find a dead stick or something we can use as a torch. Good idea, Jack. Okay, you stay right here. I'll be back in just a second.
