  • June was vacation time
  • Gas prices were way down the last 4 months from last year Ex last Dec was $200 vs $108 this year
  • Expenses were $350 for the front brakes
  • Will be needing a new right front snow tire as it is worn on one side, needs alignment
  • In the spring of 2015 will be replacing the original 2009 Continental tires
