I have been driving my car a lot. My excuse has been that I will drive it until I get it cleaned up enough to bother posting it on Craigslist. That excuse has worked for almost two weeks. I made up my mind that I’m going to do a major clean of my car on Sunday. Then have my car listed by Sunday evening. It’s time. I fear that if I don’t sell it soon I’ll rationalize my way out of selling it at all.

I have been doing very well with my finances. I have only $393 left on my first card. I’ve brought it down from $3200 in 10 months! I’m so close to paying it off! I’ve been saving a little along the way. It’s a piece of mind thing. I have $600 saved so far. So I’m still focused on getting out of debt.

As I did mention. I rode my bike to my girlfriend’s for the first time last Saturday. It was a perfect ride. The roads are in good shape. There are very few hills. It takes me through some beautiful scenery. Said and done it is a 23 mile ride. That’s not bad at all. I made a few detours and stops along the way, so I don’t have a good feel for how long it takes me. I imagine I’ll be making the ride a lot more now that I know how pleasant it is.

We went camping the next night, so I had to carry all the camping gear. Even with the extra weight it was a good ride!

I didn’t think about taking pics until I was about 17 miles into the ride, so you miss most of it. I took them with my phone so the quality may not be the best. Also, I figured out how to embed latitude and longitude with my phone, so in the future you may get maps of images of my rides you can interact with. Honestly, this is the prettiest stuff. It’s Autumn in Pennsylvania. It’s gorgeous! I’ll be back soon with some more posts, but I wanted to fill in the blanks with what’s been happening.
