911 - Man under bridge with a gun

[banknote]

Last night I got a voicemail from my river shuttle guy, Bob. He was rather amused by the spectacle of a swarm of troopers when he arrived at the boat ramp to pick up my rig. Seems someone had seen me walking back to the ramp, which is under a bridge, after parking the truck. Dog at heel, camo, waders, shotgun in hand, and apparently I looked menacing enough that they dialed 911 to report a man under the bridge with a gun! Of course by the time the cops arrived, I was well down river and around the bend, clueless to what was going on. They were sharp enough to deduce that I was just a hunter, which Bob confirmed for them and added that "he knows better'n to shoot any people." I guess they all ended up with a good chuckle, as did I at Bob's voicemail, but the troopers weren't real happy with the 911 caller.

Shit happens, it isn't their job to be unhappy, just answer the call and sort things out. Pretty funny that you are such a scary guy.

That's exactly what they did.
