First Day on Marine Patrol

It was seemingly a long road to get to this point. After all was said and done, I got up nice and early this morning and made the drive across the state, which had snow covering more than half of the roads. It was a longer drive than normal, where even roads without snow still had ice.

I got to Mercer Island around nine o’clock am. I was listening to the radio as I was getting closer. It was clear some snow fell and it crippled the area. Sure enough people are staying home from work and everything due to the snow.

Greg and I spent most of my time this morning going over the location of equipment. We did not really go over many of the details on usage. That took a while to get through everything. We also dealt with a guy who went speeding into the no-wake zone. We had him come over to the dock and we dealt with him. He got a ticket for expired registration tabs.

When I was done there I went to work and found only four people there. So I hung out for about two hours and then went home because I was so tired. My commute went quick. My quad still needs to go to the Honda dealer. I was going to see about doing that last night only to find that I could not get it out of the shop because of the truck parked in there.

I pretty much spent the rest of the night watching TV and going to bed early so I could get to work early as well tomorrow.
