My California driver’s license expires next month so I need to renew it. While looking at the renewal papers, I thought it would be good to get a Real ID as well since I’ll need it eventually. I do have a US Passport so it’s not urgent since the passport can be used as a Real ID, and I’m probably not travelling or visiting a federal building soon. Anyway, this renewal has to be done in person, and I and signed up to go to the Santa Ana DMV office. In hindsight, I probably should have picked the Costa Mesa office instead. I haven’t gone in yet; by filling out all the paperwork and uploading my documentation, the DMV said I can bypass the huge line even though they are not handing out appointments. I hope I don’t have to stand in line for hours when I do visit.
On that topic, it does look like the # of positive tests and deaths in Orange County is decreasing from the peak in early July. Maybe it will be “safer” if I wait a few days/weeks before going to the DMV
