Successful Day

I’m always a bit nervous when trying to register a vehicle bought out of state. New Hampshire’s requirements and other state requirements don’t always mesh. When I bought a boat on a trailer in Maine the boat paperwork was fine. However, the trailer had no documentation New Hampshire would accept. Was a pain. I had some back and forth with the previous owner and law enforcement had to inspect the trailer. Weird. 

Tuesday I was only a little nervous but the SUV I bought in Maine had acceptable paperwork. (don’t try to register a car bought in Florida in New Hampshire if you don’t have days to waste.) It helps that I can do all that at my local town hall. There was only one customer ahead of me. I know the town clerk by name and they know me. It was actually a fairly pleasant experience.

After that I stopped in at my insurance agent to slap some insurance on it. Did you know that car insurance is optional in New Hampshire? I won’t go without it but I think its cool that it is not required. 

Now all I have to do is get a ride out to the remote area of Maine where the SUV is. The dirt roads have had a few good dry days so the mud situation should be acceptable. 

Look at me: being all responsible and acting like a responsible citizen.
