46,000 miles

 The GLI rolled 46,000 this past Tuesday:

Missed it by 5 miles!

When I was on my way to work, I knew I'd hit 46K miles that day.  However, I went out to lunch with a friend.  Our conversation ranged from elder care to travel north of the Arctic Circle to compelling automotive choices.  It was raining heavily, and I was engrossed in conversation when I dropped him off.

It wasn't until I was on my way home that I checked mileage and saw 46,005.  Subtracting out the five miles, we must've rolled 46K together on the way to the restaurant.

I recently swapped out the winter tires on both vans and the GLI.  The tires really do transform the car, as I'm able to carry so much more cornering speed.  The Michelins have great steering feel, are direct, have respectable grip in the wet, and are a worthy match to the tuned engine.  I'm so happy they're back on the car!

234,000 miles

 The grey van continues to get closer to the moon:

Only 126 miles late!

Again, I'm not really sure when this happened.  I'll pretend it happened when Olivia was on her way to volunteer at the hospital.

So, the moon is about 238,855 miles from Earth.  While it's most likely the van will reach the moon this year, we certainly won't beat the Artemis II mission!

67,000 miles

 The CRV turned 67,000 miles at some point last month:

Missed the shot by 319 miles...

I'm hoping Madeline was driving along, sunroof open, enjoying some spring air.
