Government is a pain in the butt but it is an essential pain in the butt if you want to maintain an orderly society. I have already dealt with many of the offices in the county and I have to say that I have been impressed with the attitudes and great service provided by the employees of Mason County. I was also very impressed to find out recently that in the main county building #1 that you can have documents notarized at no charge if you are a resident of the county. There are two people in different departments that can do it and you just have to ask around to see who is available.
