Ok, the bankruptcy
was FINALLY filed last Wednesday.  This was a process that survived an attorney firing, a divorce filing, a move, and 2

months stint in rehab - but it is finally done.  Thank goodness!  Long story but because of all of the divorce stuff and the restrictions around expenses we had to each file simultaneous Chapter 7s.  The firm through a curve ball at the last minute and wanted more fees to be paid so I sold my Plasma TV to pay them.

What does
a bankruptcy filing have to do with me getting a bicycle?  Well I'll tell ya ... Well after paying the firm the rest of their fees I have a few extra dollars left over with wich I plan to buy a bike.

My apartment is about
a block away from an accesspoint for our town's Trails & Greenway System.  That's cool all by itself but what's even more cool is that I discovered that the trail system is directly connected to Metropolis - and the aquatic/recreation center - and the parks - and the performing arts center - and our little downtown - and Dairy Queen - and the soccer fields - and the ball diamonds - and the STBXs apartment complex.  How lucky is that?

The little bity issue
is that Metropolis doesn't have bike racks anywhere that I could tell.  Now I know that I don't have to lock up a bike here but I'd be less inclined to get up from reading a book at B&N to check on my bike if it were locked up.  Ah there are some light poles.

The first video is from a few weeks back when Obama spoke at our High School.  We walked up to the block to wave at him.

The next two videos are from yesterday.  We went bike riding and then spent some time at the neighborhood park.
