I knocked off the second of three permits this morning, the California Fire Permit. This allows me to light a campfire and use my stove in California. It was simple and free. You go to the site, watch a video, take a quiz and they give you a link with your permit. It is good for the year issued, so I had to wait until after January 1st to get it.
That leaves just the Canadian Entry Permit. Getting that done requires me to gather and scan some documentation, but I do not expect any issues as I do not have a criminal history. I hope to have that done by next week.
