[Nfbf-l] State ID

[lappland at bellsouth.net]

when you get your state id just request that they put a braille label on the 
back of it that says "florida ID card".
some of the DMV employees won't know about the label but it is available 
upon request.

Sincerely,
Carolyn Lapp

dollar or more to our worthy programs. Thank You!
