I love that King County Metro’s city-to-trailhead bus service is so popular! But wow we need more of it.

I used to be a passionate hiker. It brought me joy. It gave me what I perceived to be access to the outdoors. It allowed me access to the incredible recreation spaces my tax dollars paid for. I now hike once or twice a year since realizing how obscenely destructive it is to be driving all the time.

If Burien’s city manager thinks that everything needs to adhere to a script where all the players express predetermined positions, maybe he needs to get into dramatic theater work or perhaps television, and get out of public service.

OK, going back to work but I will happily share new feline-themed transit systems. I haven't gotten to Canada, yet, I bet there's lots more!
