Police Hand Radio


It is a rare occasion that my amazing husband actually gets to have lunch out. Normally we make his lunch, give him a water (half frozen), and lots of love and kisses. He understands when I have an appointment, or situations like today. I literally had to wait for the side door to be fixed. Mostly, I enjoy the fact our children get to see how much their daddy loves them and the sacrifices he makes. On his breaks he'll keep in touch with them through the game (sending private messages or reminders).

 

Today the man in our life had "all you can eat pizza". Where he found a hand radio, that turns out belongs to the local police? He called the non-emergency line, said the name listed on the bottom, and waited for them to pick it up. I wish I could hold his same sentiment and adoration for our local law enforcement. He called me to only say (because it was left on) how interesting it was to hear the chatter over the line. He went into detail about how they messed up cross streets to a local business for a hit and run. He was mildly excited to hear the conversations and to actually hear insight to current things going on. He has the memory of an elephant!!!

 

I told him there are probably apps for him to actually listen in much like a CB radio... he has no interest, and made that clear. But, it was interesting in the moment to have knowledge others have yet to hear about. We had a small conversation about how those that actually track police lines and learn the codes... but obviously not a hobby either of us will be taking up in the future.

 

Bottom line is that he did yet another "act of kindness" (which I love about him)... he does what is right even when no one is watching!!! ~*Grateful*~
