Thank you all for the suggestions. I am thinking to go to Seattle for 5-6 days including 2 days for Olympic National Park. What should be my itinerary?

I am thinking getting a rental car from Seattle airport and drive to Port Angeles on Day 1. The stay in the park on Day 2 and drive back on Day 3 to return the car after covering the loop around the Olympic national park. Then stay around in downtown for 2 days and fly back. I won't take the rental in downtown and rely on local transport.

What are major attractions I can see in this trip? What should I not miss?

Thanks

HI Folks,

My son (16) is applying for Temporary Instruction permit which is needed for drivers education course before getting the learner's permit.

Two questions:

1. When does he need to get auto insurance? Is it when he gets Temporary Instruction permit or learner's permit? Does my auto insurance company automatically knows about these permits and puts them on my policy? Mine is up for renewal soon.

2. How do I keep the auto insurance down with teen driver added? When on learners and full permit my son will be driving my 20 years old corolla. He won't be touching other cars in my household. Someone told me it is possible to keep rates low by telling the insurance company that my son won't be driver on other cars. Others told me it does not work.

Thanks for all the suggestions.

Thanks so much!

Thanks. Would July 4 weekend be ok, or we should go a week later?
If we land in Seattle, what is certainly must see around for a 4-5 day trip?
Any suggestions for cabins?

HI,

Can anyone suggest some vacation ideas for4-5 days in July in Pacific NW or California? Flights should be from MSY. Open to all suggestions including just city adventure or taking day trips around. My family (2+1 teen) has limited interest in sports or wine tours. More nature or museum fans.

Thanks

Posted too early. It came back!
Perhaps I should have posted to TigerDroppings earlier :lol:

I told him to rent a car. But, he is new in US and has no drivers license yet.
(He is legal international student).

The fact is that in old Europe Physicians got jealous and started referring themselves doctors. Historically, it was those who have doctorates (PhDs) could call themselves doctors.

another fact: PhDs who know this are amused by the ignorance of most of the "doctors." I always refer to my PCP as a physician on her face, never as a doctor. She refers me as Dr. ... because of my doctoral degree.

Thanks for recommending Scotty. His guy came out today -- free of charge -- and was more keen to fix the system than sell me an upgrade! He will be coming back again to do more calculations -- free of charge!!

(Everyone understands that there is no free lunch. But if a serious buyer needs to replace an HVAC unit, a consultation fee of 100+ is too much, especially when one should be taking 4-5 quotes).

Completely agree. What is the nonsense of charging for a quote? And licencedtochill (cilmate control) had good reviews here. Avoid them.

Sorry about not mentioning where it is needed. In Baton Rouge.
