161. Notes - driving and stats

161. 9 July 2019

       Nearing bedtime. Busy day, lots of errands then early supper with Cathy and Tod at '101 Beer Kitchen' near east Polaris Boulevard, owned in part by Jen and her husband, Cathy and Tod's elder daughter and son-in-law, and your niece. Very good conversation and dinner. - Amorella

       2206 hours. It was a busy and productive day. We also picked up our green 2005 Accord EX with clean beige leather interior, six cylinder, from Roush Honda. The bill was a bit over two thousand dollars and it was well spent. Full inspection, timing belt replacement with all that entails, plus new brakes and rotors. We are quite pleased. In all the years we have never spent more than three sets of tires, oil and fuel and normal replacement items. We had added all window tinting and our Garmin GPS with back up camera and lane and distant radar measurements, that's it. The car is ready for a go at another hundred thousand. Plus, it has always been a fun and comfortable car to drive. One more thing -- a good detailing job with full rubbing compound on the exterior. New, LED bulbs in all exterior lights for safety. I'm pumped even writing about it.

       Driving your cars and keeping their stats has always been one of the great joys and passions of your life. Your all-time favorite fun to drive car was your new 1985 red Volkswagen GTI with sporty low-profile performance tires. - Amorella

       2231 hours. I love driving. I love the focus where the tire meets the road. Focus and you become the car. The fewer times you have to hit the brakes the better, safer driver you are. Always be aware of what the drivers around you are doing. Anticipate what the drivers might do and be prepared to react accordingly. Fun stuff like that. I love being behind the wheel and being completely in control of the fantastic well engineered and safely built machine I am driving. 

       So, there you are orndorff. Another day. - Amorella

       2241 hours. But I have not conversed with Miss Havisham; I thought I would. 

       But, of course you have, boy. Post. - Amorella
