NOT Stuck in Ajo

I guess we're going to have to get another blog. We're not actually stuck in Ajo. We won't have to spend the winter here with summer (remember Ajo is where summer spends winter.)

I got a call last Friday, and then an email containing a job offer yesterday. I'm going to be transferring to the station in Willcox, AZ sometime in the next one to three months. I still need to get all the details hammered out. The phone call was very unexpected as I had applied for this transfer over a year ago. Apparently the union was upset that there were very few transfers within Tucson sector last year (most of the transfers were up to the northern border.) So the union threw a fit, and now all the stations are picking a few people from the old lists to transfer. I got picked because I'm certified on the horses, and they need riders, so I will even get to stay on the horse patrol unit.



I'll get a lot less dope (approx. 300 lbs. marijuana pictured above) and I will work in the day rather than at night, but it will still be fun.
