City Life

Soo...this little country 4-wheel drivin', camo wearin', country music fan is enjoying the adjustments to city life...there are a few specific things that just make me smile on a daily basis. The first being speed limit, irrelevant really. Nowhere else have I been, and I've seen my share of road in my day, where if you are not going 15 over the speed limit the traffic is flying by. Needless to say, every morning the traffic report has one or two accidents to inform us of the slowed flow around the loop, but that's not bad odds when you look at the shear numbers that traverse the black top/cement that we call a highway.
Second, stores are everywhere...now, this is nothing like Bloomington, IL which has the most restaurants per capita in the United States (fact) but it is definitely an improvement from the gas station subway/pizza and Dollar General store that brought great buzz to area when they set up shop back home. Need groceries...go get em...computer stuff, right down the street...ice-cream and a movie..totally possible without going more than 2miles! Oh yes, this could be dangerous for this roommate duo who find every feeling, emotion, day to be an occasion for a summertime treat that you can eat year round.
What else do I enjoy...get ready, this is big...cross-training...take this week for example in one week I participated in 5 completely different activities that promote health and wellness. The list is extensive and noteworthy for sure, feel free to be amazed as well
day 1-mountain biking
day2-lifting
day3-basketball
day4-swimming
day5-running
and to make it complete in a few momentos the best roommate ever and I will be run/riding...how does that work you ask, easy...she runs I ride a bike:) hahaha...oh how the tables have turned!
So, yeah, time to go...Lime Slurry is waiting!
