Wishing I could make it today! I'm going to be in Sharon Woods all day for work. I definitely want to try for next time.

However, if you find yourself bored after all that hypermiling and Prius talk, you are certainly invited to come a little north to Sharon Woods for an Air Force Band of Flight concert. Downbeat is 7PM, and as always, it's free!

And yes, that's my "work". Tubist in the US Air force Band of Flight and very proud Prius owner/dork.

Have fun everyone!
