silent night

In the fire stations, we have a "guardhouse" known as the sentry post, the one in our station is only a little bigger than a telephone booth. The sentry duties are divided among NSF fire fighters for day and night, each last up to 2 hours. The main job is to operate the gates and recording visits mostly, and if there's a call the fire fighter must already have his equipments on standby. I usually leave mine on the appliance, so when i open the gates i can just wait for the vehicle to pick me up from here. on some nights, it can be really quiet like the picture, had to make friend with a baby lizard to keep myself awake.
