before. At the end, I am glad I got into this agency because I did learn several things, and the staff was always willing to answer our questions. It made me want to get up during the morning to go and experience what was happening inside Cameron County Jail. Each day people would come and go to court or would be brought to the booking process.

Every year more and more shoes where added to the old crippled willow tree. Any shoe you could think of was up there, even the really expensive ones like Jordans. The shoe tree was one of the most memorable thing from the long drives up to Boyne City Michigan. Driving into the touristy town was always my favorite part, smelling the fudge, hearing the waves crash against the docks and seeing all the seagulls flying around.
