Obviously I know it's a UH-60 of some sort, but what are the pink
markings all about? I tried to rush over to the helo-port but it was
gone by then.

Bingo!

HH-60G of the 129th Rescue Wing, CA ANG painted up with temporary high
visibility markings for fire fighting duties. Hopefully this link
works...

PA or Provincetown, MA

I've watching from above (via satellite). That, and we had some
pretty impressive sunsets up here in Seattle when the winds brought
the smoke north.

Go wash the car - that's s'posed to make it rain, I hear.
