Overcast Day

I crawled out of bed before 7:30 today. I had woke up with Larry and couldn't get back to sleep. So I decided I might as well get up. 

Yesterday, the Bell County Tax Assessors offices were closed due to training so we could not renew our tags, we could have just mailed them in or done it online but we prefer to walk in. This morning we went to town to renew the tags on the car and boat trailer. Since the office was closed yesterday we thought it might be busy but when we got there the parking lot was almost empty. When we walked in the building there was no wait simply walked up to a very nice lady and got waited on. While paying for the car and boat trailer tags, we asked if we could pay for the truck even though it's not due until December. The lady said she thought we could. We told her we had it inspected already. She was able to renew the car, truck and boat trailer all at one time, perfect. Next stop was the Property Tax Appraisal District building to pay our property taxes. I stayed in the car while Larry went inside. He was back within five minutes, no lines. Small towns are so great.

Decorations for the season in front of the Chamber of Commerce building

Waiting for Larry to come back after paying our property taxes

When Larry got back he noticed that the Chamber of Commerce and Visitor Center had a cute decoration for the Fall. He took a few pictures. Then we went back to the house. Once at the house Larry put the new stickers on the vehicles.

In the afternoon we watched an episode of the GizWiz and a couple for YouTube videos.

In the evening we went to Sun City to dance C1 and A with the Sundancers. We had a small group this week. For C1 we had one square and an extra person, we danced 5:15 to 6:30. For A we had one square and three extra couples, we danced from 6:30 until 8:00. Then we danced another half hour of C1. After being gone for two months it was nice to dance with our local A and C1 friends. We had a great evening.

While we were dancing a rain storm with high winds came in. We were concerned that our inflatable Halloween decorations might have blown away but when we got home they were standing tall and looking great.

Last night I started watching a series called Hamish Macbeth on Acorn. It is a series about a small Scottish town of Lochdubn with a constable named Hamish Macbeth. It went on for three years. It started in 1995 to 1997. It is a cute series. Tonight I finished watching the first season.
