Road Trip

The next day, I started early. It was to be my longest day of driving.

Routine

After the planters leave I clean up breakfast and start working on the next day’s morning meal

Well, it happened. I’m finally a resident of Saskatchewan. Included with this acquisition are a driver’s license and vehicle registration, so my Truck is Canadian now too. The Truck was a long process that required customs forms, vehicle inspections, and vehicle modifications. The driver’s license was equally complex, but they’re both done now.
