Jimbo the Car Surfer

While driving with my dogs to Friends of Greyhounds in Hialeah one recent weekend a question crossed my mind. How many miles have we traveled to visit Friends of Greyhounds?
Here is what I came up with... The trip from my house to Hialeah is about 30 miles or 60 miles for a round trip. Since we go there on both Saturday & Sunday with 52 weeks per year that is about 100 trips times 60 miles per trip or 6,000 miles per year. I first visited Friends of Greyhounds a little over 6 years ago, so 6,000 miles per year times 6 years is 36,000 miles. I then realized that Jimbo always stands in the back of the car. That is when I realized that Jimbo has stood in the back of the car for 36,000 miles!
