A new Sheriff in town

Homee Dad has embarked on yet another road, one which will prove both a challange and fun over the next couple years. It seems two of our communities Sioux Narrows and Nestor Falls ( SNNF) have been granted thier own police officer, one that is dedicated to just those communities for enforcement and community concerns. Not a new concept but going back to an age old concept. Anyway it seems Homee Dad has been posted as the SNNF Community Officer, we still have officers that will swing down to SNNF when needed - but my zone is SNNF. I look at it as Homee being the Law in town - The new sheriff ( isn't that scary ). Brings back great stories from the past Doc Holiday and the crew, Clint Eastwood, Charles Bronson and what of Butch Cassidy ( OOOPS wrong side of the law ) - Lets try Robin Hood.

Just think of the opportunities to pad my pock..... I mean serve the community. Aw isn't justice great, - power - a shinny car -speed traps around every corner. I have been studying the dukes of hazards episodes - excellent training video's. Life is good!!!

Alas being sheriff isn't all fun and games - think of the pressure, the communities concerns are my concerns, thier issues become mine, I must take ownership of the problems, will I be able to sleep at night - Oh did I mention I get my own office?? ( working on the secretary - I wonder if Daisy would be available)?

The challanges will be many - kissing mothers, shaking babies hands ( I may have that reversed ), Town hall meetings, community gatherings, public hangings, there is a pig roast scheduled next month - ( perhaps I may wish to avoid this activity).

Anyway must go for now as I see the glow of a sheriffs badge in the sky - somebody needs Homee Dad - The sheriff of SNNF. I will keep you posted!
