CIM Riders Happy Thanksgiving

The house smells wonderful this morning as the Bird went into the oven.  I'm very fortunate to have today off from work.  To all my partners that have to spend the day at work, I wish you a safe 8 today.  As I reflect over the past several months, I guess I'm thankful to be employed , as so many our not.  On this day many of my partners futures are un-certain.

As I talked to some of my partners last night we talked about the days when the Prisons administrators would hit the yards during the holidays.  While many complain about the superficial visit, it did mean something to the boots on the ground.  On a day when you may be assigned to the steam line window, only to hear many inmates complaining about the turkey and heavy meal they will receive today.  They forget that free law abiding citizens are receiving a meal today from a mission, soup line or by donations.

Be Thankful Partners for your Families and Friends.  And take a moment to be friendly to each other today, because when its all said and done We have a common goal; that's to make sure we all go home safe together.

Happy Thanksgiving and have a Safe 8

PS take a moment to think about our brother Rob McGowan and his incredible wife Lorraine, who is spending her day getting the word out!!!
