This is actually my first time ever using spatial tools, so this challenge was a great way to learn how to use one of them!

Alright!  I have been following along doing challenges but haven't been posting these to the community, so from here on out I will try to do so.  My workflows are a bit unorthodox because I try to keep it simple and play with the data.  Regarding this challenge, it was pretty straight-forward, but it was also my first time actually using Spatial tools.  I generalized my data a bit and had fun.  I could have reduced the number of steps, but instead decided to do a bit more.  Since I didn't have spatial data, I didn't include the driving distance.  Enjoy!  And thanks to the community for being awesome!
