Congrats Aussielad!! :dancing:

I'm just hoping I get mine before I have to do the Dance of Death in Philly to get an I-551 stamp if it takes more than a year. Did you know that central Philly has no left turns? :protest:

us too ...we just a little ahead of you. We are going on vacation out of the country in December and are really hoping not to travel with the expired GC and that NOA... fingerscrossed.gif

... driving around Center City Philly is an art. I have no problem because I've been doing it for more years than I'll admit here...but poor hubby gets lost all the time and winds up in places he should not be...the odd thing is his GPS does not work in Center City Philly..

Good luck....

Congratulations - it's about time - and then some!

“...Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?”

Yeah, for you.

Life's just a crazy ride on a run away train

You can't go back for what you've missed

So make it count, hold on tight find a way to make it right

You only get one trip

So make it good, make it last 'cause it all flies by so fast

You only get one trip

No offence taken.. I don't live here in Philly anymore... just come in two or three days week to work and take the train, at that. I left Philly for beautiful Bucks County over a decade ago..

and I forgot.. :blush: congrats Aussielad on your approval... :dance:
