Going Off the Deep End
So I took my second toe dip into the waters of a car free (or the best we'll ever do, which is a car reduced) lifestyle. We are making a dish with Tomatillos this week, and I needed some hangers for putting up Icons. The Tomatillos are available at a grocery store close to the Barrio (in downtown Carlsbad), right next door to the hardware store. Typically I would simply drive over there during the day. I wouldn't normally do my full grocery shopping at the store in question.
So, what I did instead is that on my normal ride to La Costa I went a little bit further (about a mile altogether) and stopped at the hardware store and grocery store. Not a big deal, but a little step.
(update: I forgot to get something at the store yesterday, so Catherine and I rode up today. A total of 4 miles not driven by car!)
