Since it was already clear to me that I am the substitute kitchen manager of the community while Dom Benedicto is away and is currently struggling to get his US Visa in Mexico, it was clear in my mind, too, that I will be going out every wednesday to do the regular shopping with another monk brother as my assistant.
So, I decided to, once and for all, get my US driver's license.
In the past, I have been having second thoughts whether to get one because I thought to myself that I won't be needing it anyway, but now, securing a driver's license is just as inevitable as going to town weekly.
Now I realized that going to town every week is gonna be an indispensable one.
I was glad that the processing of my NM driver's license did not give me any trouble as I brought with me all the necessary requirements in getting a regular one. ( Social Security ID, Passport in place for Greencard, State ID, and a certificate of my physical address from Rio Arriba County).
In an hour's time, I got my US license:

After i got my license, we proceeded to Sta Fe for the shopping. This week, I was accompanied by Dom Francis, OSB, a 52 yr-old Peruvian monk. (he left the community in 2005 and is now back, hopefully, for good to continue his monastic vocation in our community). We went to Sam's Club, Wal-mart and Southwest Cash and Carry ( all in Sta Fe downtown ).
We arrived at the Monastery at 6:45Pm and immediately unloaded the grocery stuffs we got for one week, and headed to our respective rooms for a good and sound night sleep.
