[Music] so yeah that's one of the things that i do like to do is whenever i see that the hydrants are getting snow caked around them i like to clear those out because if there ever was a fire there's no way for these firefighters to safely clear this hydrant out hook up their hoses and still have time to put out a fire so if i can save them a step or two i'll do it all day long
