last night!! Yo T-Bone, remember when you joked that we might need a "Bail Bond Fund"......well, you can be the first to contribute. A new cache was published shortly after 1900 last night.......it was dark but we decided to go look for it anyway as it was about 16 miles east of us. I turned off the freeway onto an alternate highway, speed limit 65, passed through a little wide spot in the road that housed a closed restaurant and drove past Mr. Deputy hiding by an underpass. Red lights flashing and he pulled me over. He said speed limit was 45 by restaurant and I was going 63. Then I didn't have an up-to-date insurance card and since I pay insurance on line the insurance card was probably sent to WA. He added "failure to have proof of insurance" to my charges. Got to appear in court on March 31.........unfortunately we won't be here then. Maybe we'll have to spend future winters in another state!
All that, and we didn't even get the cache first! Today was old folks days and I walked away from the casino $20.00 ahead.............at least that's a start on paying my ticket. Guess I'd better call them tomorrow and see what the damage will be. Spent a good part of the morning trying to get an insurance card mailed to me and finally I was able to get a copy of the card on line.
Stay tuned. All for now. W&B
Oh yeah.....the deputy has a good thing going at this particular spot, we returned the same way and he had another car pulled over about the same spot he captured me! Wonder if there's any "kick back" going on for tickets written???
