WAUWATOSA, Wis. (WFRV) – Firefighters know how to use many tools, it’s part of the job; however, a Lieutenant in Wisconsin takes his skills to another level when he’s not fighting fires.

Wauwatosa’s Firefly Grove Park is the newest playground in town, and Lt. Patnode’s newest piece of art is a park bench that showcases the new spot.
The new playground includes plenty of equipment, but the new bench showcased not only Lt. Patnode’s craftsmanship but also a look into his daily life outside of serving the community.
