Rode on the back of a Suzuki Bergman "Executive" motorscotter with my father-in-law. (First time) Two wheels is definitely alternative! 40mph with nothing to hold onto -- just trying not to think about falling off. I was definitely nervous about it -- sort of like learning to drive a car as a teen.
Now I'm off to see some sustainability projects: rainwater and graywater capture and reuse, composting, vegetable oil diesel car, and a Camry EV conversion. I will tell about these later.

Energizing at NU-WAY hot dogs
Past noon and everyone yelling they're hungry. Heading onto 129 in Macon and wouldn't you know there's a Nu-Way. Red hot dogs! Yeah!
Are we there yet?
The kids are fighting and we've only gone 30 minutes so far. Wonder if they'd fight if we were driving an ELECTRIC VEHICLE? Maybe a Prius? I say "next year in an EV!"
