Academy Graduation

Heath had been talking about going from fire fighting in Arkansas to the police academy in Las Vegas. I asked him about it a couple of times and they were always on a hiring freeze or when he did start the interviews, something always came up with his job at the time where he couldn't finish the screening. Finally, last year he was invited to the Goodspring academy to train in becoming a deputy constable. After much deliberation on his part and a few questions to the Constable, he accepted and later resigned after graduation. The constables refused and pacified whatever reservations he had. They wanted him. He graduated Top Gun in the CAT-II academy and top scorer on the State test for the CAT-I academy in Henderson the following year. We are all very proud of him! He finally quit Stations job, he has his preferred days off and hours, vacation, and there is much, much, much less stress in our household (well, also do to me being home since then).
