So along with looking for what to do with my dying smart, I’m also moving out! I recently lost the apartment I thought I had secured. So now I’m back to the search!

Right now, I’m dead-set on moving to the City of Chicago. I mean, both Miss Tesla and I adore the city, so we want to move there. Plus, my little smart will feel very at home!

So far, the apartment search suuuuucks...but this...person, did give me a big laugh.

That’s right people, you can buy glass windows that experience sunshine!

Also, does anyone in northern Illinois have a lightweight trailer I could possibly borrow? :)

Wait, I jussssst read your post on Upper Midwest. Are they both really only $30 each? Including helmets or whatever else I’ll need? And what about tyres? I only have silly all seasons.

What part of the city are you looking in?

Basically everywhere in the city limits. Time is running out and Miss Tesla has to be out of where she’s living by Feb 15th...so we kinda sorta stopped nitpicking on location...so long as the community is safe and the apt isn’t a dump.

Yes, both are $30.

Usually they will have rental helmets, but I’ve actually got a spare helmet (size medium) you can use if you’d like.

I know the CWSCC has a sub-class specifically for cars with all-season tires, and I’m guessing that FVSCC does as well.

Another WI Oppo and I are talking on FB right now about splitting a hotel room in Waupaca, which is midway between the two events. So drive up to the event Saturday at Lake DuBay (starts at 1PM and ends are 7 or 8), head to the hotel to hang out/sleep (about 45min away), and then wake up and head to the Poygan Lake event which starts at 9am.

Oh hell yeah! Alrighty! Count me in!

The only condition at this point is if Miss Tesla ends up being sick. If she gets sick, we’ll be homebound all weekend :(. If not, you’ll see me there!

Pre-Mercedes Monday = Sunday

My computer changes certain words for me. For example: Google Maps on the right is called “Overlords” and Chicago is labelled “Chiberia”.
