Been a loooonnnnngggg time coming …

Well, an early start to the day allowed me to log one more success as we head into the final days of the year. Happy about that …
… but the real news is that I finally have freedom. Freedom to sleep on trips, freedom to NOT be the designated driver, freedom to NOT be the resident taxi driver … yes … that is right … I got a christmas present this year. Well … Melissa got a christmas present — I am just a happy recipient.
She went in at 3:30 on Tuesday to the local DMV … 2.5 hours later we came out with a new drivers license. So … stay off the sidewalks and on the streets (though that is always a good thing to keep in mind down here). We did find out why the drivers down here are the way they are. The exam is done on a ‘internal course’, no actual road test … and it was only 15 minutes long. Far easier than the tests in either Washington state (which was fairly easy) … and definitely easier than BC.
The evening just topped off the night. A short trip up to St. Pete gave us the chance to visit with Bob and Doug (down from Seattle). We would like to thank them for a great dinner … it is so nice to be able to visit with you again. We also wish you luck as you as you move into your new place. Looking forward to visiting you sometime over the next year.
Everyone enjoy your Christmas eve …
