exhalations

It's been a really busy week, probably because I'm trying to tie up some loose ends before starting back to work full time. Plus I was preparing for a public hearing before the planning commission on our proposed trail plan. For the first time ever, on-road bike routes were added to the county trail plan, so we expected some opposition. Fortunately there were many supportive cyclists who waited around, in some cases until past midnight, to speak in support of the plan. I guess all the work and late night meetings were worth it, at least so far. We have another public hearing before the Board of Supervisors next month.

Will this be the transportation system of the future? "The ULTra (Urban Light Transport) scheme involves driverless cars taking passengers around the capital on a dedicated track." I heard about a system like this a few years back, and even envisioned something like it while in high school.
