Maryland issues license plates and then each year thereafter you pay for a sticker to show when the plates expire. We bought our first motor home license plate in June, 1995 and they have been on our two previous motor homes since that time. Now that we have South Dakota plates, it was time to turn in the no longer needed Maryland plates. So, it was off to the MD DMV office on a Friday afternoon to complete this task. We were both thinking the DMV office would be swamped with people, however there were just a few ahead of us in line. Handed in the registration and plates and we were out of there. Plus, we get a refund since the plates are renewed two years at a time.
We decided to celebrate and have dinner at the Outback Steakhouse and treat ourselves to a nice meal. We got there early enough to grab a seat at the bar and have a happy hour drink. The bartender noticed a booth opened up behind us in the bar area and said bar customers have first choice on the booths and didn't have to wait to be called by the pager. Good deal. Back went the pager and we were seated in no time. The meal was great, but we couldn't eat it all and brought back lunch for Saturday in a doggie bag. We also ordered Key Lime Pie, but brought it back also for later.
We visited with Jack for a while and headed back to the cabin to get to bed and catch up on our rest. The trip took more out of us than expected and we went to bed early.
That was our exciting day, how was yours?
I love to look at the miles of corn and bean fields. Makes me proud to live here in the Midwest. The corn looked pretty good. Some of it here does too but we saw some yesterday that was dead. The beans look good but like the corn, don't know if they have any "seeds". I know all the trips to Wisconsin in a row wore us out and I'm just getting back to myself so we'll be ready for the wedding in three weeks.
ReplyDeleteWE are just waiting to hear if we can rent the house again in Tucson. Sherwin had his first gel shot in his knee and two too go, hope it works for at least a little while.
ReplyDeleteGlad you are back safe and getting ready for the next trip.
