Marine Patrol on Kanasatka

They were on Wicwas yesterday also.

They launched a small boat at Glendale this morning for training. An officer had two trainees in the small boat learning to maneuver and dock the boat. I suspect that transport to small lakes along with boat launch and recovery is part of training for new recruits. Could be that is what was going on.

My "rule of thumb" is to expect to see them wherever I go. It makes no difference to me whether I see them or not since I have nothing to hide. I just have this feeling of an overwhelming presence of them every where I go in this state. Lakes, snowmobile trails, highways, byways, remote roads, hiking trails, etc,etc,etc... (Sadly), my father used to say that no matter how far from civilization you think you are, you are never any more than 10 feet away from an empty Budweiser can... That's kind of how I feel about Law enforcement in this state!!

I used to live on a small lake. They'd show up midweek with 2-3 boats on the whole lake. Everyone would head home when he showed up because he always found as way to stop you. I got spoken too once for having my anchor light on without my anchor deployed. I was stopped and just sitting. It seemed like an anchor light moment to me😎.
