Four Years

 Four years ago today, August 22, 2018 was a hot August day in central Louisiana.  I was still working as a sheriff's deputy.  I had already planned to retire on April 1, 2019, but hadn't told anyone except for Belle.

That afternoon, a snow cone truck pulled in to the parking lot, and I could not resist.


Has it only been four years?  Yeah, but it seems like I lived a lifetime since that day. Since then, I've run an ill-fated political race, lived through Covid, and increased my volunteer work.

That may be the last snow cone I ever ate.  The flavor? Blue bubblegum.
