I FoUnD iT... I foUnD It!!!

The infamous lost 1st blog.....



I ALMOST RAN OUT OF GAS! Well for those of you who don't know, I have to use BP/Amoco Gas. I only use their gas in my car and only get Silver (mid-grade) too. I have also been trying to employ some "hyper-miling" practices as well. I shift into Neutral to coast down declines/down hills. It really works, but you have to work at it. This past gas tank lasted from Aug. 15 - today (Aug. 26), driving in Atlanta around my area (Dunwoody), driving downtown about 3 or 4 times, and driving almost all the way to Montgomery, AL. Yeah I had to stop somewhere between Auburn and Montgomery. 520.3 miles total, one tank. I Am The Man...lol



I had lunch with Alicia today. Thanks again Alicia! From what I gathered, she has he stresses, but is doing well. I wish I was working in my filed the way she is working in hers. She gave me a tour of the the NBC affliliate station she works in. VEry cool place.



After leaving Alicia,I find myself just driving south on I-65 toward Mobile, AL. I wanted to make it to the beach before it got dark, but because of a stop I made in Fort Deposit, I missed the sunset and the photo-op. I will catch it in the morning or see a better one when I get to Cali.



I'm going to attempt to sleep in my car in a hotel (Days Inn) parking lot. Hopefully that works out.



Until next time.........
