    Light at the end of a short tunnel

    I went for a walk to do some shopping this morning. One of the cool benefits of our new city center is a convenient, short tunnel to the mall. It was nice to be out, roaming around the city a little, even with a mask taped to my face (it stops fogging up my sunglasses!).…

    I’ve been walking to work and on short errands a bit lately. I decided to walk today instead of driving to work and the walk home reminded me that walking can be a great way to wind down after a hectic day. If you think you live too far to walk, just consider Steve Wright’s…
