Trip Stats.

I like numbers. So here’s all the numbers from my recent trip to Arizona.

727 – number of miles between my apartment and the hotel in Tucson.
313 – number of miles I drove around Tucson and to and from Wilcox.
1,767 – total number of miles.
59,151 – starting number on my odometer.
60,918 – ending number on my odometer

30.34mpg – average gas mileage there
20.52mpg – average gas mileage while there
30.47mpg – average gas mileage back (34.14mpg between Flagstaff and Orem)

$126 – money spent on gas.
60.11 – gallons of gas used.
$2.88 – cost of gas in Utah.
$2.64 – cost of gas in Arizona.
$6.00 – cost of parking at the U of A.

$168 – cost of staying three nights in a hotel where I could make my own waffles for breakfast, which was the whole reason I picked the hotel in the first place.
$24.65 – for trip snacks (which I didn’t finish so they’re going to go in my desk at work, if they make it that long).
$5.73 – cost of lunch at the university.
7 – number of Capri Suns I drank on the trip.

5 – number of rows of bookshelves of children books in the whole of the U of A library.

Priceless – the value of getting out of town for a few days, seeing friends, and finding what I needed to find in Tucson.
