Going Green

Well I have been riding the electric scooter back and forth to work at Long & Foster Real Estate for over a week now. My commute is roughly 15 miles and it takes me about 45 minutes. It is a real pleasure to ride especially when you consider the amount of money I am saving on a daily basis not driving a gas guzzler. Every day I see more and more of these scooters on the road. Hopefully this trend will continue and automobiles will become the odd vehicle on the road.

Beside just being a fun way to commute, I really feel good knowing that I too am helping in nearly every possible way to reduce pollution. Admittedly, I do smile each time I pass a gas station showing prices for unleaded gas at over $4.00 a gallon.

Catch Up

That's what the father tomato said to the little tomato that kept falling behind.

Here is some of my "catch up". April 4, 2008 my father passed away due to complications from lung cancer and heart disease. Since then my mother has not been doing too well. I am hoping she comes out of her depression soon.

I had to postpone my Chesapeake Bay charter fishing trip for May 17th with Capt. Mike because of work. The Long & Foster headquarters is moving and I am providing support for all of our applications as our servers are moved. Basically I just need to be available if something doesn't come back up so I can design an "Oops it's down" page.

We have canceled our European vacation this year because of the falling dollar. So we will be flying Joanna here for a visit and to attend the 80th surprise party in Florida in August. We are waiting to find out if she will be leaving from Greece or from Germany.

I found a guy here the sells electric scooters. If I am allowed to plug one in at work I will begin commuting for free. That reminds me, I need to find someone and ask him if this would be ok or not.
