The so called multi-modal paths aren't really very safe pristine places to walk----dodging speeding golf carts and occasionally a flying bike just isn't much fun. Sidewalks---boring hot and hard on the old' feet. Walking around the neighborhood streets----how far can you get before you have to stop and visit.....A walk on the golf course----PRICELESS! I get it. Looking for a pristine safe quiet walk with some beauty and maybe a little wildlife. Well, let's put such a walking trail on our Wish List along with the heated indoor pool, performing Arts Center and a Macy's/Dillard's!!! TV something for everybody.
JustJim - thanks for taking the time to read and actually UNDERSTAND what I am trying to communicate. I am a new golfer and thoroughly understand why we can't have folks walking around out there. You grasped the concept of a beautiful walk enjoying nature, rather than just saying "you can't do that" and I appreciate your insight.
