    Only 24 miles to work and 24 miles back on my bicycle 3 times a week. BTW that's crazy what you had to deal with glad you've moved on.

    you are a physically fitness wonderous marvel.

    You can borrow my wife and kid for a day(hell the whole week) if you want when I'm down.

    Hey thanks over a year's time it helped me drop 45+ lbs ALONG with giving up 90% meat. I still eat fish/seafood once or twice a month.

    I had a 70 mile round trip drive when I was still in school (graduated in May). Unfortunately, that trip included going over the Whitestone Bridge so my trip took forever in the morning and if I left near rush hour.

    About a mile most days. I guess that's pretty short.

    congrats on the new job!

    about twice a year...for a week. Mr. RK's company makes him go to Minneapolis.
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    That is far! Any thought of the family moving down there with you?
    I'm lucky I live in a small town and it takes me all of 5 mins to get to work, my husband works in the next town over but still only 30 mins each way.
