Gas Relief

It’s not spelled R-O-L-A-I-D-S in this case.

I’m talking about the fact I’m easing up on driving. This weekend my CRaVe didn’t move out of the garage. I’ve been riding on a tank of gas since Mother’s Day. I still have half of a tank left.

I didn’t just sit idle in my apartment. On Friday, I went to the Greek Festival at the Greek Orthodox Church of the Annunciation located at 2187 West 14th Street in Cleveland’s Tremont neighborhood. The food is awesome and the people are just as great. I’ve made it a Memorial Day tradition. My friends picked me up and dropped me off. CRV didn’t move

On Saturday, I took the tour of the Veterans’ Memorial Bridge. It wasn’t all that I thought it was going to be but there was a lot of people along with me. Parts of the bridge have steel grates separating you and the Cuyahoga River. I have to admit being a little skittish walking over that part. I also got to try my hand at the Wii Fit. It’s interesting and intuitive but not enough to make me want to buy a Wii. The rest of Saturday night was low-key. Rock Bottom for a snack, service wasn’t so hot but that’s the first time that’s happened. All walking distance

Sunday was the Fun Day. My friends and I went to the 17th Annual Marc’s Great American Rib Cook-Off & Music Festival. I remember when it was held at Burke Lakefront Airport. I got to be a judge this year. It was a lot of rib eating and a lot of sauce tasting. We didn’t eat all of the rib, we had helpers. Rebecca had Rodger, Molly was along to help me. Let’s just say I’m done eating ribs for a while. We also got to see the bands, Red and Seether. We walked both ways!

Monday was even more lower-key than Saturday night. I cleaned and went domestic. I played a little “Zelda”. Never left my building.

The gas needle (indicator) didn’t even move… Ah, the gas savings!
