Where did you travel this month?

We love to share our adventures, but we like when you share yours with us too!  Tell us about your adventures this month.  Where did you go? What did you do? Would you go again? Did you learn anything you'd like to share with others? 

NEXUS & TSA Precheck

So during our recent trip (driving) to Canada my husband did some research on the NEXUS program and TSA Pre-check.  Mostly because the wait at the border was 50 minutes going up and about 2 hours coming back, and he saw people breezing through the Nexus lane.  Anyway, his research (as usual) was enlightening.

I like when I drive and he does research!

Turns out, when you apply for NEXUS online most of the options include TSA Pre-check.  So, if you're going to be traveling to and from Canada you should check out The Department of Homeland Security's information on NEXUS (well in advance) before you go.  You might just save a little money and time!

Things my hubby noted regarding the program:

1. Everyone in the car must have the NEXUS pass in order to go through the NEXUS line.
2. The memberships are valid for 5 years.

If you have NEXUS or TSA Pre-check we'd love to hear your experience traveling with them.  Worth it or not?

Cilajet

My 2019 Dodge Durango went back to the dealership to get Cilajet put on, and so far I am not very happy with the result. When we picked it up there were 4 big scratches down the side. The Servicer Writer was like "well we didn't do it" and I told her they weren't there when we dropped it off.  Keep in mind I have only had this vehicle for about 3 months!  She said when they put Cilajet on black paint it brings scratches to the surface.  


No one mentioned that to me and the scratches weren't there when I dropped the vehicle off. The Service Writer said they didn't take pictures of my vehicle when I dropped it off, so her manager said to just fix it.  But she felt the need to say one more time "even though I know we didn't do it".

Ugh, has anyone else had Cilajet put on their vehicle?

Snow, Snow, GO AWAY!!!

Who asked for this? Ewwwww!!!
I mean it is pretty, but I could do without it.  😜

We don't usually get snow, but when we do it is either nothing exciting or a lot more than we are prepared to handle.  We had about 8 inches in Monroe, there were branches down and roads closed.  Hopefully, everyone is warm and safe.  Enjoy the beauty while it's here. ⛄

Monster Jam

Monster Jam at the Tacoma Dome was fantastic!  Grave Digger was a fan favorite but the show stopper was Soldier Fortune Black Ops!  The heart-stopping two-wheel skill and the freestyle event gave Black Ops the opportunity to show off and he delivered!
