Well, yesterday we boasted that we've featured just about every mode of transportation. Perhaps we missed one: getting from Point A to Point B on foot! Walking is a GREAT mode of transportation. Above, a group of 5 women are out for a late-afternoon stroll along Country Club Drive. It has been beautiful walking weather over the last few days and Greensboro loves to walk. We especially enjoy walking with friends and with our dogs.
Today is September 11.** This past weekend, hundreds of people walked up and down the steps of Bellemeade Parking Deck to raise money in honor of September 11 victims* While the above women aren't out fundraising for 9/11, they do remind us that feeling safe enough to walk along our streets with friends is one of the best examples of freedom. As you walk today- even if it is just to and from the coffee pot at work, reflect on something that makes you thankful. Post it in our comments, if you have time.
*see News & Record article and photos.
** Last year for 9/11, we featured a commemorative plaque.
Nice segue from transportation to remembrance of 9/11 and the walk to honor victims of the tragedy. It's hard to realize that it has been 11 years since that awful day.
