Had Shore Patrol out in Waikiki. Pretty interesting! I was dreading
walking around for hours, but officers and chiefs have the option of
riding around with HPD, so I did. Met two very nice Honolulu police
officers. Didn't really end up with sailor problems much, but saw a few
traffic stops, a pursuit of a suspect on foot (Eee! Just like on TV!
And she caught him, too!), a domestic disturbance, a
robbery-that-wasn't, and a Marine about to be cited for public
urination. Got that guy into our SP van before he got cited. Silly
Marine. Two other guys got beat by bouncers at a couple of clubs, but
other folks took care of that. Thankfully, none of my guys had
problems.



Did some nice shopping, and picked up a few things I needed as well as a
few things I wanted. Got the last copy of Bear's Blood and Iron
at the Borders at PearlRidge Mall. I've been meaning to get it all
along, and really wanted it now that I heard her read from the sequel at
WorldCon. The mail brought me a few more books I ordered from the
heritage and professional reading lists, as well as an order from Fire
Mountain. Yay! Pretty beads!



No pictures, because I left the stupid camera in my locker. Alas. But
probably a good thing on the day I went to the bar with the rest of the
Mess.
