I hope everyone has been enjoying some of the pictures I took. I know I have been posting them like crazy. And these are just a few pictures from my camera. We took 1000s on the Nikon and neither of us have touched those.
I’m thinking I may need to find a new blog design that will let me do the bigger pictures then this one does. Sometimes you really can’t enjoy the pictures until you really see them.
The house is slowly but surely coming together……it seems to be a never ending battle. The last major project is the garage…..or storage unit, for a better description……..lol
We finally, finally have cable! Thankfully! Now we can actually watch the news and see what it going on in the world……..what a concept. They came out today to do it. Ended up 2 hrs late and then took almost 3 hours since they had to drop a line in the office. This townhouse has never been hooked to cable, so he had some work to do.
We went and got our DL for here in Oregon. Ok, here is a few strange things………they issue you a temp paper one and mail you the other, you can have EITHER a DL or an ID, but not both, they take only cash or check…..no credit, we had to take a written test even though we have nothing against our FL lic and they cost over $55…….not including $5 to take the test. Now the cool thing, the DL is good for 8 years, only cost $125 to register your car that will last for 2yrs, not 1. Out of all the DMVs we have been in, everyone was friendly, helpful, and happy……..you normally don’t see that. Even the comcast guy had the similar nature, so that was cool.
Tomorrow we are heading up to see D & family for the weekend. Wish us luck on crossing the border…..we are taking lots of id stuff with us. We are so looking forward to seeing them. Next week we are going to apply for our passports now that we are here.
Well, I need to balance our books and then start on packing. I may not be able to post tomorrow since I don’t know if our hotel in Canada will have internet.
