On this day in 1678, Boston took the first steps that evolved into what we know today as the Boston FIre Department.

According to the Boston Fire Historical Society:

"The first paid (call) municipal fire department organized. Thomas Atkins is the first fire chief, aided by twelve assistants. The first fire engine purchased and a building provided to house fire engine. The engine, imported from England, was lodged in a shed on town land on Queen (now Court) St., near the (then) prison."

We sometimes get questions about our cameras. Here are the answers.

This Canon PowerShot G15 camera will give you what you need to take stills and video of your celebrations. Canon's G series is our all-time favorite for everyday cameras. We own the G10 and G11. They're a little bigger than the compacts most people use, but let you shoot with automatic settings or easy-to-use manual controls that please the many pros who use them as second cameras. And, if you are ready to turn pro, follow our lead. Ed Shoots with the Nikon D7000 Digital SLR to and Penny uses her Nikon D600.
