My wife is becoming an American citizen today

images-3My Australian wife, Carolyn is taking the Naturalization Oath of Allegiance to the United States of America today at the courthouse in Rutland.  She will finally, after living here in the US for over 15 years, no longer be considered a resident alien.  She will be an American citizen.   I mention this as a lot of the food we do here at the cafe is Australian influenced as I lived there in Melbourne for about a year.  Please be assured that we will continue to make meat pies and sausage rolls!

She said she is looking forward to going to Town Meeting in the spring. And she is also looking forward to voting in the presidential election too!  I’m wondering if this is just the beginning and public office is really what she is after!
