SUNDAY MORNING ENCOUNTER WITH THE SHERIFF!!!!Sunday morning dawned clear and sunny! I was driving my new car to church as I planned on going to the picnic afterwards. I had only had my car for 2 1/2 weeks, and still just had the "title in transfer" sign in the back window. Mom, Anna, and I had tried to get it registered on Friday, but when we had arrived at the Recorders office, we realized that it was the last day of the month, and the last day of the quarter, which meant that the room was packed!!!! So, we had decided to wait til the following week (this week).
So, on Sunday, Mom, Grant and Anna led the way, and I wasn't to far behind them. When I got to the fourway stop I saw the Sheriff's car to my right- I made sure to come to a complete stop, and that when I took off from there I was going the speed limit. I had driven quite a ways when I looked back and saw a car coming. I couldn't tell if it was him or not, no sirens saying he was pulling me over or anything like that. He even came along side my car then backed off and turned on his lights! I couldn't believe I was getting pulled over! I whipped out my cell phone to call my--All I could think about was that after attempting to register my car I had forgotten to put the old registration back in the car. So, Mom said she would run home to get it. The Officer was still back in his car and had not come to my window yet.
Finally he came-- He said he noticed that I didn't have license plates and wondered if I had just recently bought this car. He then asked for my drivers license and insurance which I had! After what seemed like ages he let me go, saying, "he would take my word on it that I had just bought the car, and to get the plates as soon as possible." He didn't end up needing my registration after all. So, after I left the scene, I called Mom to let her know that she didn't need to get the registration! She had Grant, who was driving, turn around. A few minutes later I get a phone call---We just got a flat tire!...........Needless to say it was a crazy morning!
