However, now that spring has sprung and the travel bug is biting again, it is time to start getting things ready for the travel season.
But first, we'll start with the photo of the birthday girl on her first birthday.
I took this past weekend to get the tow bar installed on the Miata. I was looking for a tow bar that wouldn't look horrible on the car once it was unhooked from the BUS. I got really lucky and found a great one manufactured by a guy right here in Houston. www.rennenmetal.com is where I bought it and this is what I ended up with.

I added the red, racing tow eye for those times when I'll be taking it to the track.

We'll start with that for now. Maybe that will be enough motivation to get me updating this blog more regularly now.
