I did the same thing yesterday getting my temporary handicap placard. But I got there too early and the kiosk told me to come back later. So I just got a regular number and sat down there were about 40 people with numbers ahead of me. after 15 minutes they went through 4 numbers and I went back up to the kiosk and this time was not too early and it spit out my reserved number and immediately I heard that number being called on the PA, I just jumped in line about 36 people by using the online line.

Common these days. Obviously too many handouts in place.
Hope you keep sugar in check.

Good Morning
52 with a high of 60 under misty clear skies, another nice day.
Yesterday’s Zoom meeting was pretty painless, I got a lot of loose ends tied up in the shop.
I had a friend water jet a piece of stainless sheet to repair the rear deck on the Progressive mower due to the previous owner not being as diligent as I am about cleaning it off after every use.
Something went wacky with the .dxf file that I sent him and one 5-1/4” hole didn’t get cut, so I cut it out with a hand plasma cutter and circle guide.
Not as nice as the waterjet, but acceptable nonetheless.
Next project was to build up a spare wheel and tire for the same mower. It’s got 12 tires, so it will get used. But boy, I sure hate changing those little tires. (15-6x6). I’ve got a HF tire changer for them, but it still sucks.
While at the restaurant for lunch, I noticed that there was some some sort of weed tree taking over the dumpster enclosure, so I came back loaded for bear with the the little Stihl 6” chainsaw, and the Makita 14” saw and hedge trimmers to make short work of it.
Small price to pay for lifetime free meals.
Today will start with breakfast with the professor, wife is coming along, and son is going to join us after he drops grandson off at nursery school.
Costco run after that, then who knows what I’ll get into.

I used the online app to get in line last time I went to DMV. Worked out well. I was afraid of missing the slot, but did it about 15 min before arrival.

Morning all, 49 going to 63 and sun is up.
The old boiler is gone and the permit for new boiler finally ready
Got some more halloween decorations up and started building the fire pit back up.
Be well,
Leafs starting to turn, though many are already on the ground.

Had one of those midnight thoughts, “did I turn water heater off in the camper?” Decided it could wait till morning, and it was off. One year I went to drain tank at end of fall and got surprised by hot water when I drained the tank. Got reservations to use it next week, pretty close to home but full hookup. A nice paved spot.
Heading to WV today, hope some nice leaves. Riding this one.

I did the "chimney sweep" thing here yesterday. Outside and clean out at the bottom, so I was a dirty mess. Shop vac was just used to the the horizontal run inside, cleaned out. Also planted some cedar trees and a scotch pine. Garage door company is supposed to come today and put the doors in my shop. 7:55 and they're not here yet. No call or notification, either way. Hopefully they show up... Heater is due to get done tomorrow. County assessor's office guys showed up and wanted to look at the shop. I filled out the "any improvements this year?" card they send every year, and told 'em about it. They said it looked great and were impressed, and the new shop "shouldn't" bump my taxes much. We'll see...
