We did it!! This was our first month on the road where we ended the month UNDER budget. We were able to come in under budget largely due to the fact that nothing on Nancy broke. We were also able to somewhat control our habit of going out to eat more than our budget allows. We covered a bit more miles than anticipated and therefore we went over our expected budget on gas. Also, when we were in Flagstaff, AZ, we found a bar that we really enjoyed (FLG TERROIR). This caused us to go over our budget for bar trips. Outside of these things we are pleased to announce that financially speaking, we kept it in between the mayo and the mustard for the first time during month of May!! Miles Traveled: 2,085 Gallons of Gas Purchased: 155.43 Average MPG: 13.41 Number of things we had to fix on Nancy: 0!!!!!
