Hi Blog readers,  I can say that with confidence… since I have not posted any photos on this blog yet!  Indeed, this is a blog that must be read to be enjoyed.  Apparently, somehow this blog was mentioned in Yahoo News and somewhere in Google, so I am getting comments from folks around the world.  However, I will not post these comments if they are simply asking about blog techniques and strategies. Those of you who have read this blog from the beginning know that I am NOT a computer or tech savvy person.  So, I cannot effectively answer any of these sorts of questions.  But, I will answer any questions regarding my blog content and Tesla experience!!

Again, I apologize for the infrequent posting.  Life keeps me very busy.  Just last week I attended the birthday party for my friend who turned 85 years young!  And the very next day, I attended the wedding of two other friends.  So, there was lots of delicious food, drink, and of course dancing.  That is how I try to offset the intake of calories with effective exercise.  Back at home, my flooring project is coming along nicely with almost 780 square feet installed.  I also did some carpentry stuff with the chance to use my favorite tool (the Sawzall reciprocating saw!).  As for outside work, I’ve done a lot of pruning of shrubbery and work on a swimming pool.

I have been doing lots of driving in the Tesla between Santa Cruz and San Francisco since my big trip to NJ.  When I stopped to charge in Fremont yesterday, Sofia (receptionist there) mentioned that she has spoken to many customers about my trip east.  They often wonder if it is possible to make a big trip with a 60kw Tesla without a tech package… and my journey showed that the answer is a resounding YES!!  She likes to refer them to this blog as evidence.  And, since it has been a while since this long trip, soon I will do a road trip to South Lake Tahoe.  I will have the chance to use some of the Superchargers that have opened since the last time I drove to Tahoe in June of 2013.  It isn’t as far as the NJ trek, but I am looking forward to another fun journey, if only for a couple of days.  I will be sure to post about the trip when I go.   Frugal Tesla
