    Thanks!! Took it yesterday. I was taking family photos for our Christmas cards. I got all the pics I need, now I have to design the card.... or take the time shortcut and go online and use a template to order the cards. I love sending Christmas cards every year. :bigsmile:

    Our parking deck accomodates approximately 750 cars, I'd say.
    This morning, I believe I saw 50 cars.


    Do you vanpool due to a long commute (time) or just to be thrify (gas) or ..... other reasons?? All of the above?? Just wondering.

    I only live 15 miles from work. It takes me 20 min to get to work and 30 home. When gas prices soared, I re-joined my old van pool. It costs $15 a month to ride in my van and it was costing me $60 to fill up my car each week. The van pool even got a bike rack for me, so I could van to work (with my bike in tow) and bike home. It's a great work out! Now that the weather is bad and gas prices are down...I thought about dropping the van and using the gym at work again, but we'll see. I might be buying a home further from work soon, so I will need to van pool for sure. It'll be 30 min to work and up to an hour home. :cry: If I van pool it'll shave at least 15 minutes on the commute home. Gotta love car pool lanes in rush hour!

    HOV lanes are a HUGE incentive to car pool.

    Dear Lauryn,

    Being that it's a ghost town at work today, you are welcome to leave at 3pm.
    However, before that time, I need you to complete this 10 foot tall pile of work.

    Signed,
    Your Boss





    That is what the email would have said, had my boss emailed it to me. :grumble:

    :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
