    Don't walk and post here at the same time! You'll end up tripping into a water fountain or walking into the middle of the street and getting run over or something else that will later be found on security footage and posted on YouTube and laughed at for generations.

    Walking is good. 10,000 steps a day is our goal. Mind you, I said "goal."

    How can it be in the shop? You don't drive it enough to break anything!

    We missed each other by one day again.... I did the route up Lookout Mountain on the 11th. At 11p.m. Lovely curves, no cars or bikes to speak of. XD

    Took the GP on its first road trip. Took in the sights of the annual cherry blossom festival. Car said I did it averaging 44mpg, whether it's accurate or it was fun telling friends with much more "economical" cars the numbers. Manage to eek out some solid photos too.

    Waiting for the call that the shop has finished installing the Koni Yellow's, ATI crank pulley, tensioner, idler pulley, camber plate bearings!
    Did the brake guide pin maintenance, oil change, air filter, cabin filter, aux input, and USB power sources for phone and GPS last weekend.

    Whew.......
