Registration and Residential Parking Renewal Notice

It’s that time of year again. For the privilege of parking on the street we need to cough up money for registering the car and getting a parking permit sticker. The option is to get a one or two year permit. We usually opt for two years just to avoid the hassle of removing the existing sticker and replacing it with a new one. I really miss our driveway, parking slab, and two car garage that we had in the Midwest. I never had to worry about finding a place to park, or having to leave the two cars we had on the street and in the elements. But things are different in the concrete jungle. At least we only have one car to deal with here. Fortunately the parking issue is usually on Tuesday - Thursday because a lot of the congestion is due to congressional staff who are only in the neighborhood during the week. There are five congress people who live in our building. They live here Tuesday - Thursday. You can set your clock by it. I suppose you could get by living here without a car, but we just aren’t ready for that step yet. So for as long as we do enjoy driving, we will need to keep renewing our registration. So we got our scraper out, removed the old sticker, and secured the new one on that expires in 2020. Who knows what will be going on then?
