That Last Glance

snow

we don't get too much of it around here

and when we do folks tend to go a little

nuts...rushing out for bread and milk

...ending up in ditches

 

now that i'm retired i choose a simpler way

of dealing with it...spending the day with one of

my favorite author's new book. he writes of the seedy

side of life...victims...law enforcement officers

it's nice to be able to read about it instead of

 having to deal with it

two of my friends and officers were shot 

yesterday...along with two other officers i didn't

know... ambushed while on a domestic violence

call...always the most dangerous of situations. they

are expected to be ok but one of the others is in

critical condition. every one who makes their living

protecting others knows that last glance at your

home and loved ones before you leave could be

your last

i've been sending up prayers for det. roby

who is fighting for the chance of another

glance. if you are so inclined...he could use

your prayers also
