On my work walk for a good morning cup of Dunkin’ on Friday, I noticed the spot a block down from the library in the Village of Liverpool surrounded by police.
Safe and sound.
No joke!
And no crime.
You can.
The local police departments were helping raise money or several deserving charities.
Good work, all.

Yes – and just not healthy for our men in blue – oh wait – stereotype number two-
Ha
But they need good fats and oils and snacks that nourish the brain and help them
Do a very challenging job

And at wa wa (2 yrs ago) we left a note of thanks on a cop car – and now know we should not have done that – stay away from the cars just in case – but the officers came out with good food (no pancreas-terrorizing and immune pulling sugar donuts – lol))

But most are amazing – and earlier this year a local
Officer (not sure where – saw it on the news) but he bought a lady a car seat instead of giving her s ticket! Whoa

You know, not there to sneak a donut but to help the community.
