Wishes and Dreams

Years ago I had an alpha dog, a coonhound named Lucy and a black Labrador mix named Ruby. I used to walk them daily through to Oak Hill cemetery, back when the Cook's lived there, in the 90's. I occasionally ran into Sargent Pion who would be parked in his patrol car in view of the distant waterfall on Privilege Street. He said his dream was to become a writer, and write a book. I hope he did! He said he would tell his rookie guys "Don't ever change, don't let police work make you bitter and jaded."
