Isn't she lovely? She'll be even more beautiful after she gets a new more lady-like paint job, though that will be a while. Last weekend Brent purchased new-to-me Kawasaki Vulcan 500. I love it! It is taking some practice in learning to shift and such and hills terrify me right now. It feels like I'm a teenager learning to drive a stick shift all over again, but this time I'm a little more exposed. I drove it for the first time to work on Wednesday and was super pleased that I didn't even stall once. Hoorah!

Green living isn't always easy (sigh). One of the bigger difficulties is grocery shopping. Though we sometimes use Austin Car Share, I'm stubborn and want to do it on my own. So today, I went to the grocery store for the second day in a row to finish up my shopping. I got some great fruits and veggies at Central Market on Lamar and was uber pleased at my selections and merrily checked out and went on my way.
So I have been without my car for over a year now and today had yet another interesting scooter experience, which made me want to excite or caution anyone thinking about making the switch.
Some things that I love: 60 miles to the gallon, $100/year insurance coverage, $3 a week gas bill. I love the ability to smell most anything that you pass like pizza, cigarettes, trash, bread baking. Those are things you |
