So much for blogging every two weeks!! There is no way I can share all that has gone on since my last post. But I will try to highlight some key events. First, my knee is much better now. However I had a bad fall on a slippery sidewalk in San Francisco during a rainy night in early December. It caused injury to my hand and wrist which may be one excuse for postponing blog entries. More acupuncture and chiropractor appointments have helped in the healing process.
I hosted a fun holiday party with lots of food, drink, and line dancing later in December. For New Year’s Eve I took a few friends with me to visit with more friends in Merced to ring in 2015. I hope to visit them again soon. It is a beautiful drive from the Gilroy Tesla Supercharger!
A friend visiting from Sweden wanted to go to the Gilroy Premium Outlets. Since the Tesla Superchargers are there, I offered to bring her. While she was shopping, I decided to drive around the Gilroy area. I even drove onto some crazy dirt roads which were actually thick with mud from December rains. I feared getting stuck at least twice and thankfully I eventually made it back to asphalt. There were many perplexed cows as I drove by in what was clearly NOT a tractor!! As I plugged in at the supercharger, I laughed at the crazy mud covered Tesla. Not many owners go off roading like that. I rinsed off much of the mud at a recycled water do it yourself car wash for $5.
The Golden State Warriors have continued to play amazing basketball. After many disappointing years, it is finally fun to go to every game. The entire San Francisco Bay Area is truly abuzz with the excitement of this team.
Well my Chocolate Car may be a collector’s item someday. It turns out that Tesla is no longer offering brown as a color option. My odometer is over 35,000 now so I brought the car in for a tire rotation. Thanks to Thomas at the Burlingame Service Center, the tires were rotated and inspected. And, best of all, the car looks brand new again! They did an amazing job cleaning the car inside and out. No one would ever know about the mud incident from the looks of the car now. Thomas even delivered the car to my home after the servicing was completed. Now THAT is excellent customer service!! Frugal Tesla
