Will that be legal in MI?

Yes, there reciprocate. But I might just go through the stup[id class here so I do not have to go through to much trouble by traveling. It is also reciprocate in Indiana as well and my way to and from Flo-Mic trip, all states will recognize it as legal while traveling.

I know about the insurance. However, I own in both states and can spend all least 60 days on each and still be a resident. 2018 I was here to work in schools and had an accident coming from Chicago O'hare to Michigan. Went out on first exit in MI and on my way back in the highway, got on black ice and my truck turned 180. Had to get police to help me move the truck and he helped with moving my fender so I could continue to drive back to Muskegon. My insurance paid 10K for damage to a rail that nothing happened to it while my truck has busted every corner. My chevy still runs,lol It's a Chevy! Like a rock!

My insurance is for Veteran's and it is from Fl. Never have been stopped and also drove 2 yrs without a brake light, but fixed now. My son says it is because of my veteran sticker's on my truck. I believe it is just divine protection. I always have my seat belt on, lights on even on day time, signal for everything, stop like 3 times on stops signs. By the way, what is up with some stop signs? There are like 4 to 5 ft from the corner,lol Florida is the same way and that was my very first ticket ever. I need to stop where I can see the sides but nope! I need to stop .05 acre before the corner,

Dreamz. You have to actually stay at the residence you claim for more than six months of the year (as in six months plus one day) to claim residency there. With a few exceptions like active military service and away at school.

Otherwise, you can get in trouble with everyone from social security to home owners insurance (vacant house cost more to insure) to property tax (whether you claim homestead or not), state tax headaches...

We've been dealing with this for the last few years with my mother's estate.

I know that Canadians can't be out of country for longer than 6 weeks without losing their health coverage. A lot of Canadians that go to Southern US in the winter have to fly or drive home every 6 weeks to maintain their coverage.

Mexico had a similar thing in reverse. I could only work there for 3 weeks then I had to leave the country for at least 24 hours. Since I didn't technically have to come home to Michigan I travelled all over the country for weekend excursions. All on the company dime. Good times.

I just received a post card in the mail from 31st District Court in Hamtramck. It says an infraction date of 02/02/22 and a default judgement of 02/28/2022.

I don't think I have ever been in Hamtramck. Hell, I haven't been south of M-81 in over 5 years.

Hot composting can be fast but it takes way more work.

Yes, you have to turn it every other day or so to keep mixing in oxygen. I flip mine from one bin to the other, then back again in a couple days. Very good exercise for the upper arm flab!

Here's one (of many) websites that show which states are reciprocal with what for their CPL.

I made it after 2 days. Hell in here. Fl turnpike was a mess. Orlando is so different.
Yes, I left the house with family member and will pay the yingyang to Michigan.
Can't wait to b back home. Hate this heat. 92 is terrible 4 me. I can see the girls but I know they miss me as much as I miss them.
Most hotels are expensive whore/drug houses now. Terrible. Will try to post in 2 days. Come and save me! Lol

57 degrees yesterday and it is now 30 with a good 3 inches of snow on the ground and it's still coming down. County truck plowed around 11:00 am. By noon you couldn't even tell. I cleared the road around the mailbox. Don't want the mailman to get stuck.
Welcome to Michigan.
