Ellie Mae finds a new home.



Ellie Mae, the homemade trailer I towed cross-country last year, has found a new owner.  She's going to be carting several extra bicycles to NYC from Tampa, while her owner rides alongside.  The cyclists are seeking to promote their idea about their pizza diet.  A proven weight-loss, weight-training workout program that improves health and fitness.  Tour-de-Pizza of St. Petersburg, FL. is sponsoring the event and is holding a kick-off at their store on June 4, 2010.  Free pizza!
It was sad for me as I drove off.  I stopped in Ybor City on the way home for a slice of pepperoni to honor the day.  Returning home to my far more spacious garage, I realized this marked the end of special part of my life.  I don't plan to build a new trailer, so as the construction project really carried me through the initial phase of my retirement last year, I felt that sense of loss.  But moving on, I see the garage as host to new projects.  The first to be a full reorg of tools and materials.  "Yea", for retirement!
