I would love to see more side walks in the mall area. There are a lot of people who live in the middle of Florence but I just don't feel too safe walking in the middle of the road with the way some folks drive.
Just this past Friday afternoon we needed to get a few groceries from Wally-World and the old changed in the Honda. I dropped my wife off at Wally world and then dropped the car off at Damson Honda. I walked back up to WM through the grass and was thiking of other places we could walk or ride a bike of only there were some side walks.

.I bet you got some strange looks, too. It's funny to me how people react to you when you choose to walk. I live fairly close to a small store and sometimes on a pretty day th kids and I enjoy walking there and back.
But I cannot tell you how many times people have stopped and asked us if we needed a ride, if we were broke down, if we were okay, etc. My favorite, though, is just the look that some people give you like "why in the world are those people walking "?
I've got a feeling we're all going to be riding bikes and walking more as gas goes up. I know I will.
