I've got 6 months left to exchange my MA license and the sense of dread grows stronger with every abortive attempt at online interaction. Might just drive on my British permit forever. Just show up 20-30 minutes before they open. You will be the first through the door and first served.
March 17, 20197 yr Just show up 20-30 minutes before they open. You will be the first through the door and first served.In Alaska during the summer, you would have to get to the DMV two hours before open to get in that day

March 17, 20197 yr Corte Madera.There is even an employee who hands out forms to people in the line before the doors open.Protip: not Monday as you get all the people who "mislaid" their license over the weekend.Protip2: Check your Real ID doc requirements.
March 17, 20197 yr Protip3: See if you can download and pre-fill any forms. Saves the hassle of pen and ink.
March 17, 20197 yr We can now make appointments in advance at the DMV here in Michigan. Even get updates and reminders texted to you.
March 17, 20197 yr I have been pleasantly surprised with the DMVs out here in the Suburbs in Illinois. I thought for sure I was going to have to pay off at least a couple of government employees, but I have found the DMVs out here to be pretty efficient. They have tried to make it a bit more efficient by compartmentalizing it lately, making it far less efficient, but I can still typically be in and out of my neighborhood DMV in 20 minutes.
March 17, 20197 yr I did the real ID a few months ago at Corte Madera. Just show up early. It won't save you entirely from the line but in a world of shitty alternatives it is one of the least shitty ways to go.
March 18, 20197 yr This weekend's Grand Prix junior event. For those of you who have never met Lance, he is the one dressed in white. Edited March 18, 20197 yr by Augsburger
March 19, 20197 yr And...done! 30 minutes from opening the door. Thanks to G-Man and T-Money (sounds like a super hero duo) for the extremely accurate information and advice.
March 19, 20197 yr Back when I was a driving instructor (only 2 years!) I used to visit various DMV's 3 or 4 times a week. Things have improved for many of them but there has always been a huge difference between locations. Find the best one within a reasonable distance and stick with that one (like G-man and TMoney said). Never go on Mondays, Fridays or the day after a holiday. Since I moved to a town of around 150,000 I hardly have a chance to sit down before I get my business done. Most of the time, there's only 1 or 2 people in line. BTW Part of the reason anything having to do with ID can't be done online is the whole immigration debate and how Homeland Security clamped down of this stuff just when the internet would have taken over the DMV.

March 19, 20197 yr filed our taxes. i never imagined a scenario where the my tax-plagued state of Illinois would give me back more money than federal. lol.
March 19, 20197 yr ^^^ Ugh, thanks for the reminder. I still need to do our taxes. Odds are I will not end up on the winning side.
March 19, 20197 yr Those Illinois fuckers have never given me a dime. I guess they have been giving it all to the Oak Park/River Forest elites.

March 20, 20197 yr I was born in Chicago, went though primary education there and college. But once I started working I left. I live in Nevada now. Taxes are a big factor.. property, income tax and sales. Plus mountains. Also my weather is better. I love Chicago. I cannot see a future in which I go back. Edited March 20, 20197 yr by SeaWolf

March 25, 20197 yr First time riding the lower trails after the rain melted all the snow. Things have changed drastically this year! Some deep puddles in the first pic, the second is more representative of the current water level.
March 27, 20197 yr I found out a few days ago, but I still have cancer. It isn't going to kill me tomorrow, or anything. Edited March 27, 20197 yr by EdipisReks1
