[QUOTE=fire240;18835103]I have been there 12 years Rick. Recieved a call from the Department of Natural Resources Police Tuesday of last week. They offered me a job. I accepted it on Thursday of last week, I start the 25th.

Thank God! You have a truck to pay for.

I wish you good luck in your new venture.....

Thanks Rick. I would not have left if I did not have something else lined up. Small pay cut initially with the state but it will be manageable.

Yesterday Patty's sister brought their dad over to Peoria with a pretty bad case of pneumonia. He was almost gone when he got here.
