Letter: Lots of ‘Oregonians’ here

Time to renew the car tabs, what to do? What to do? There appear to be many options.

One is arranging to register my car in Oregon like many of the neighbors, as sometimes it looks like I’m the one with out-of-state plates. And no second thoughts about not hiding my Oregon-plated car in the garage at night. Plus, I wouldn’t look out of place with the “Oregonians” who drive all the way over here to walk their dogs in the neighborhood park.

Another option would be to not renew the tabs at all.

A third option would be to not have a license plate, permanent or temporary, altogether.

The above three options seem to be growing rapidly in popularity in Clark County.

So, what to do? What to do?

Lots of options and only one good answer.
