About

I’m Billy Schmidt, a retired firefighter and a curious person.

This blog is nothing more than what interests me at any given moment.

I write about the way things look from where I am.

I have experience in a variety of fields – the fire service, emergency medicine, education, construction, aviation, peer support, and leadership coaching.

I’m interested in people, learning, servant leadership, and contribution.

Any opinions I express here are entirely my own. I never speak for anyone else – just me.

The pictures attached to posts are from my own camera, usually taken on the fly. Typically, they reflect the subject of the post, though a few might require some imagination.

What am I doing now? See my “Now” page.

If you want to say hello and have a (virtual) conversation, email is good: [email protected].

Ancora Imparo (Translated from the Latin as ‘Yet, I am still learning.’)

Warning: Mileage may vary. There’s no order or logical flow, I just record it. I don’t know when or how often you’ll see it!
