He somehow parleyed it into enough salary to be one of the highest paid civil servants in town! After the paper did an expose on Ofc. Bonar (pronounced "BONE-er" by locals), the FWPD kind of got back to the drunks will be drunks mode.CWMartinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06798867734074134647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822869016413307981.post-30196265042486266092017-05-12T15:52:06.279-04:002017-05-12T15:52:06.279-04:00Glad you're ok from the fall off the curb and ...Glad you're ok from the fall off the curb and that you didnt get a ticket for Public Intoxication. :)<br />Hope you didnt have much money down on your horse gamble!hollihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08558294192449866387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822869016413307981.post-61513998215435143482017-05-12T11:22:38.891-04:002017-05-12T11:22:38.891-04:00Sounds like a fun time, except for picking the wro...Sounds like a fun time, except for picking the wrong horse. Thoroughbreds can be so skittish! We're fans of harness racing, where Trotters can be equally frustrating, breaking stride and falling to the back. Scrappy is a lucky dog, to have such a dedicated dad. ☺ I always enjoy your photos.
