Going to the BMV on a rainy morning was a good call!

Maybe the backlog jam has eased, but I'll give myself credit for picking today to renew my registration and driver's license. :mrgreen: Arrival to departure under 25 minutes. No appointment, walk in.

Last week that location looked like someone was giving away $100 bills.
Quit worrying, hide your gun well, shut up, and CARRY that handgun!

I went early last week. I used the online system to get a place in line. The website was showing a 28 minute wait and my drive took about 25 minutes. I got there and was next in line for renewing my d/l. The girl directing traffic at the door must have been very good at Tetris when she was younger as she managed to get people inside with social distancing with ease.

My plate renewal by mail finally showed up 2 days before my birthday.. I mailed it out on May 3rd, and it showed up on June 22nd.. I was beginning to wonder if it had gotten lost in the mail, or if I had somehow forgotten to mail it.

If it's not like giving away a good fishing spot, mind sharing which bureau you went to?

I go to the Milford office. It's usually less crowded than the Hamilton County ones and it's close to my barber shop.

You can't truly call yourself peaceful unless you are capable of great violence. If you're not capable of violence, you're not peaceful, you're harmless.
