It would take 45 minutes to an hour to travel the five miles from my house to work, which takes me 12 minutes. It is ridiculous. I would take the bus if it were like DC or Chicago. I'm from the Chicago area and EVERYBODY takes the train downtown. I took it to work for years! And I love DC's rail system.

But we are getting there- so they keep telling me. Be patient. Stay calm and before you know it Light Rail will take you anywhere your little heart desires!

Sadly, I live far enough out in the suburbs that, unless I'm going into town for an event, mass transit isn't practical. My 15min drive to work would get replaced with a 45min bus ride, followed by a 30min metro ride and then a 10min shuttle ride (assuming I can make the last shuttle at 9:30am). And the whole shebang would cost around $5Delorahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17998695094102234995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1542806651392353413.post-83282012632559698882009-08-06T12:17:58.955-07:002009-08-06T12:17:58.955-07:00Nope, rural towns are void of such luxuries.

It there was a subway or train guaranteed I would be using it.
