    Tying the Knot...

    Hey All, It's been a while since I've posted or been here. As usual it's been crazy at work and deciding on a career change soon??? In my spare time I've been helping to get things situated for our wedding .

    On June 11, 2011 I'll be exchanging vows with a very Beautiful and Amazing woman .

    Pretty much why I haven't been around much ...been lurking though .

    Take Good Care All and Be Safe Always. Those going to the Blade Show ... Have Fun and Have A Very Safe Trip .

    God Bless

    Congrats and good luck, Raven. If you held out for a couple more days, you would have hit my wedding anniversary 6/14 - Flag Day!! No, I didnt plan it that way, but when my friend told me, I knew that I would never forget my anniversary...

    Hey All, THANK YOU VERY MUCH for the Kind Words . I always appreciate it .

    As for the career change ... Well, sometime after the wedding (not sure how long) we plan on leaving Colorado and going to either Washington State or Oregon. I may do a bit of Armed Security for a while, but I plan on going back to school and earning a degree in Wildlife Conservation and do something with the Division Of Wildlife or Forest Service. Figure 15 yrs as a LEO might help me a bit and give me an edge . It's something I always wanted to do, but just never had the time or funds. It's about time for a change ...after dealing with the public, one can figure ... "At Least Animals Have An Excuse" !!!

    @tonydahose, No fire fighting here brother ...I had enough of fires with Arson Investigations .

    Take Good Care and Be Safe Always.

    God Bless

    Why do people worry more if you argue with your voices than if you just talk with them? What about if you lose those arguements?
    Slowly going crazy at work... they found a way to make the voices work too.
