over the river, through the woods

At the request of Tommy I saw what Google Transit and HARTline could do with my morning commute. My first try was with my old commute, one I made almost exclusively by bus.

My memory leads me to believe that the time estimates on Google are pretty accurate; that is as long as they’re not based on the suggested walking route from the Marion Transit Center to the University of Tampa. Cutting through all those buildings might be helped, but the swin through the Hillsborough River would be murder on my work clothes.

As for my current commute, the walk from home to the nearest bus stop on Skipper Road apparently requires traversing the forest preserve between them.

You’d think I work at grandmother’s house.

    I invented Google Transit, and even I am tired of reading about it on Sticks. Let’s talk about Mark Foley or something.
