Walking to work
I have been taking our transit system(Marta) off and on for 3 years now. At first I took it to avoid the headache of traffic in Atlanta. It really sucks if you haven’t had the pleasure of being on one of our major thorough fares between 3 and 6 on any weekday. Well Marta provided a nice relief but I had to drive to the park and ride and that was a headache in itself with 7 lights between our house and the lot. Well one day I was stuck at the transit station so I started looking at bus routes and lo and behold I found a bus that ran directly to the transit station and was only a quarter of a mile from our house. Since that day I have had the pleasure of walking to work every day. I really hate it when I have to drive in. I have also had the benefit of dropping several pounds because I’m getting more exercise. If you live in the Atlanta area please check out the different mass transit options. You might be surprised that you have options instead of filling up with that expensive gas.
