Good News!!
 
I was walking along the multimodal path this morning when 2 bikes, myself, a runner and two golf carts all came upon each other at the same time near a curve - Everyone was respectful and courteous as we waved good morning to each other and kept our distance. All is well in my universe this morning.

That is what I see as I take my walks around the village of Bonita

How very nice to see a positive report, which in my opinion, is more reflective of TV.....than the ongoing complaint driven posts.

Yes, I agree that is how it usually is.

However, sometimes it is not, so the walkers and bike riders have to be VERY vigilant on the MMPs.

No, not the cart drivers, because they are not the ones who will be injured when they hit us.

We walkers and bike riders cannot expect the cart drivers to behave in a considerate manner. We have to look out for ourselves.

That is great news!

And this is how a positive post starts to go down hill.
