I sold the Kia this weekend, well, gave it to my parents actually. It’s a bittersweet departure. I did love that car and we had many special times together, it was very reliable, and always safely got me to my destination. But it was also quite an expense for me, and I really did not drive it enough in the city to justify spending the money, and it ended up just sitting there getting beat up on the street. So I picked up the next best a thing...a new to me bicycle! I love it! It's a super sweet Schwin, blue, lightweight, and so fantastic. Now I have the best commute to work along the lakefront, it really can't be beat for a form of transit in the city, as long as the weather cooperates, which happens all the time in Chicago! I can’t wait to ride it to the Grant Park Film Festival and hopefully to Pitchfork, as I know the Music Festival Fairy is for sure going to put a ticket under my pillow! I guess the road trip won’t happen with me behind the wheel, but perhaps now I could find a friend with a car and a sense of adventure to make it all happen.
