As a footnote to yesterday’s post about Margaret’s visa application being in the mail, the other legal matter we needed to take care of before she emigrated was transferring the title of our [former] car to our friends who bought it from us. This was a great nuisance, because Pippa and I bought the car in Durham while Margaret was on a longish stretch in Baltimore — so my name is on the title, so she couldn’t sign the title over by herself. It’s all done, though; we have one fewer asset in this world, and one fewer task to accomplish before Margaret’s departing. Maybe it’ll really happen!
