    MY GOAL: To obtain a REAL ID and renew my license that had expired in the last two weeks…read more TIME SPENT: Under 2 hours total --- 30min to upload documents one business day prior, 45min waiting for the office to open, 15min waiting in line during office hours, and ~10minutes to get thru check-in, document review, and re-activating my license with a future REAL-ID. EVENTS: I completed my real ID verification document uploads the proceeding Friday. I belatedly discovered my license had expired, but also that I needed a real ID to comply for the spring 2025 mandate. Late Friday afternoon, I uploaded .pdfs of a W-2 form (SS verifying document), bank statement (redacted and only cover page with address), and credit card statement (redacted and only cover page with address), with accompanying active passport (photo page only). This was deemed sufficient and surprisingly approved Friday late afternoon (in hours!) by email with a confirmation code and 30d expiration. After I printed my documents at home in black/white (both redacted and full versions, the latter was an unnecessary back-up), I arrived at 7:45 AM the following Monday without an appointment. I was number 12 in line. For context number one arrived at 7 AM at this Franklin location. Some of us early birds brought lawn chairs. And behind me, there were over 30 individuals by the time the office opened at 8:30 AM. 15 minutes prior to the office opening, two helpful employees (one elderly woman named Crooks) went down the line and asked each individual about the reasons for their presence there today, as well as to reviewed the appropriate documents. I had pre-printed my redacted abbreviated uploaded documents, which were deemed usable. I had the upload confirmation code, as additional proof. At 830, the office opened, and by 8:45 AM I had reached the front of the line. Of note, I tried obtaining an e-ticket, but it repeatedly failed at the final step 4, with a VDI error. The "check in desk agent", with Parkinsonian hand tremor, reviewed the documents and required the assistance of another, apparently more experienced, but also elderly individual, to navigate screens on the computer to appropriately check my printed documents that I provided. These were deemed accurate (despite me offering the confirmation code of my previously uploaded documents - no idea if they were cross-checking). I was then asked to scan a QR code, which checked me in, and texted me some simple questions (btw I did this during the computer check-in shenanigans). Next I was directed a kiosk, which they called an 'iPad', of which there were three, and digitally confirmed some simple demographic-type questions, took a digital photo, and received a paper receipt of a active drivers license with the printed official copy to arrive in the mail in the subsequent 20 days. No fees for my expired license! I Concluded my kiosk time at 8:54. As I departed, I was overhead called to one of the ~7 cubicles on the left side of the office space, but then, I was shooed away, as my experience was deemed complete at the kiosk. Maybe the cubicle land was for those who had an appointment, an e-ticket, an initial license, or more complex need - I have no idea. In Short, despite some of the daunting reviews and the uncertainty on the DMV website itself, lack of ability to ask any questions at all beforehand, and a limit to readings on Reddit, Quora, and Google, I found this experience to be better than my expectations were set at, and I was quite pleased. Hopefully your journey will be as smooth as mine, even with an expired license in the state of TN.

Went back to the gentleman and he came up and asked Karen Burns to help me. Well, Karen talked about the Titans and Walmart then told her friend " I will be right back to help the guy with a MVR" She came back after ten minutes and went to her desk.

    YOUR NEXT ADVENTURE AWAITS!…read more Kudos to the Heritage Foundation for their successful efforts in preserving the architectural, geographic and cultural heritage of Franklin and Williamson County. You deserve applause! Downtown Franklin is that boyfriend who doesn't really want to spend time with you but just doesn't know how to verbalize his feelings. Instead, he starts acting out and doing all types of passive-aggressive behaviors. This year Franklin decided that he would host a production of one of my favorite Christmas plays and advertise it to the public to get everyone excited. However, I noticed that even prior to publicly releasing the tickets, several performances, (by the Pull-Tight players), were suddenly listed as "sold out". I later found out that this was because preference was given to all of his friends and family, (stage hands and season ticket holders), so that there weren't any left for the general public. Who does that?? Not cool! He took me to a downtown restaurant that had the worst food ever!. Sure, he showed me a good time on Saturday (Dickens of a Christmas festival), but that's because company was in town and he didn't want to look like a really big jerk. When I returned on Monday, it was as if he didn't know me. It was business as usual and I just felt like he didn't even care, (traffic congestion, no on street parking available). Don't even talk to me about that parking garage because I am the visiting girlfriend and I deserve to be able to park "up front". The best spots are always saved for company and that is the rule of the day all over the south! Figure it out! My feelings were hurt because I went all the way up there just to see him and spend time with him but he just left me hanging. Sure, I found other things to do, (Civil War tour, The Factory, Nashville), but we did not get to spend significant time together and that was the primary purpose of the trip. Now, I am not a "Bitter Betty" so I have decided to allow him to make it up to me with some specific ground rules in place for my next visit: I am going to expect priority parking and I am willing to do my part by arriving early. I am going to need a descent restaurant that is not a bar and not a fraud. I am going to need all shops open on time and ready for business. Most importantly, I will want to attend a professional performance at the local theater, so I will be expecting some reserve tickets available for the general public. Thank you. I look forward to visiting again in the warmer months so that I can fully explore all there is to see and do in this little community. Hopefully the issue of the downtown traffic congestion will be less of an issue. What visitors need to know: It is best to arrive early especially if you want to take photos of the beautiful historic buildings and the Christmas tree on the square. There is a downtown parking garage that is conveniently located for your use if necessary. Congestion seems to pick up around lunch time due to this being a central spot for shopping and dining. Personally, I would eat before arriving in order to save time and get right to the shopping and sight-seeing. If necessary I would probably just grab a convenient treat downtown and have lunch elsewhere. Historic Franklin is so much more than just shops on Main street, history is absolutely everywhere, including in the homes close to the downtown area and on the edge of town. You absolutely must visit The Factory which is an old historic factory that has been fully restored and is now occupied by a number of businesses and restaurants. This should be a priority on your list. Finally, nothing can trump the rich Civil War history of this town and the battle that took place on November 30, 1864. Although there are actual structures that can be toured, I found greater interest in my own journey of visiting the museum, walking the battlefield and cemetery and reading the historical markers describing key figures and events. Despite what I did see and do, there was so much that I did not get to see or experience to the degree I desired. I will definitely be back! ***A special "Thank You" goes out to my friend BILL P. who introduced me to the town of Franklin just as I was contemplating my next adventure. Middle Tennessee was great and I I even had an opportunity to visit Nashville and some of its impressive sights. Even though I had some issues with my boyfriend Franklin, I still had a great time with my husband! ***Remember, caring is sharing. If you see something or know something that might be of interest to a fellow Yelper, let them know and you will have a friend for life!

    This marker stands in front of the Williamson County and opposite Franklin City Hall. As with many…read moremarkers, it provides some context to other statues and monuments in public squares across the south. It is worth reading to remember the struggles that people went though for equal rights and to show the struggles that some exhibited to prevent them. The marker reads, "The Franklin Riot of 1867. Carnival of Blood. Several armed clashes occurred among political groups and the white and black populations after the Civil War. In May 1866, Memphis rioters killed about fifty. In July, a riot engulfed New Orleans, killing almost 240 including more than 200 U.S. Colored Troops veterans. Fortunately, Franklin did not experience such levels of violence, but on July 6, 1867, an incident in this square reflected the boiling tensions in the post-war South. On that day, several Republican candidates (called Radicals) made speeches in the courthouse without incident. Later, Joe Williams, an African American aligned with the Democrats (conservatives), spoke there. Some Radicals clashed with Conservatives, John L. Houseformer Confederate officer, struck J.C. Bliss, a white merchant aligned with the Radicals. Members of the Union League (a bi-racial group affiliated with the Republican Party) also were present, and tempers flared. The League members left after firing a few shots into the air, and the tension increased through the late afternoon, as Conservatives (also a bi-racial group) gathered in the public square and near John House's store. Just after 8 P.M., the Union League marched into the square, heavily armed. According to A.N.C. Williams, the Leaguers had informed House they would lay down their arms, but as they passed the Conservatives, a white Conservative fired two pistol shots into the Leaguers, who returned fire. White Conservative Michael Cody was killed, and six white and several black members were wounded. Twenty-seven Leaguers were wounded; most had been shot in the back. Dr. Daniel B. Cliffe, a Unionist, helped treat the wounded. United States soldiers arrived from Nashville the next day to restore order." The marker includes three photographs. There is parking in the square.

    While I'm about as Yankee as they come, I do understand that there's a certain appeal about the…read moreSouth and the Confederacy that's more than just what many people think. And so I believe that there is nothing wrong with honoring people who fought and died valiantly and with honor. That's what this monument is about. Located in the middle of a two-lane traffic circle on Main Street in Franklin, this Confederate soldier, like many of these monuments, faces south with his back to the Union. He is "protected" by four cannon facing in each direction. And the caption reads that he was erected by the Daughters of the Confederacy in 1899. It is a nice monument and a fitting tribute.

    I've previously photographed and written about 122 veteran's memorials…read more Everything from King Phillip's War and the French and Indian War through Iraq and the War on Terror. But review number 123 will be a little different -it's the first monument I have ever seen dedicated to the Confederate Soldiers of the Civil War. It's right in the center of lovely Franklin Tennessee, in a small rotary park where Main Street hits 3rd Avenue. It's monolithic column rises an impressive 38 feet into the air. On top of the column is a mustachioed Confederate soldier standing tall and holding onto his rifle. Check out the detail on him - you'll see a long sleeved coat, a large brimmed hat, a holster and a belt. There are four cannons at the corners of the traffic circle, as if defending the statue. There are inscriptions everywhere. Here are the flowery highlights: Erected to Confederate Soldiers By Franklin Chapter No. 14 Daughters of The Confederacy Nov. 30, A. D, 1899 We who saw And knew them well Are witnesses To coming ages Of their valor And fidelity. Tried and true. Glory crowned. 1861 - 1865 In honor and memory Of our heroes Both private and chief Of the Southern Confederacy. No country ever had Truer sons, No cause Nobler champions, No people Bolder defenders, Than the brave soldiers To whose memory This stone is erected. Would not it be A blame for us If their memory part From our land and hearts And a wrong to them And a shame to us. The glories they won Shall not wane from us. In legend and lay, Our heroes in gray Shall ever live Over again for us.
