Phoenix Light Rail
November 23, 2007
I heard the light rail system being installed in Phoenix is similar to what Mayor Chavez proposed for Albuquerque last year. I’m not sure if Albuquerque is big enough to support such a system yet, but I’ll totally be down with the project if and when it ever gets legs. Good public transportation is one of the things I love about certain big cities and think that the sooner a city can build the infrastructure to accommodate future growth the better. In my opinion, the Rail Runner, despite all of its financial problems, is a step in the right direction for Albuquerque and Santa Fe.
PS - we piled in the van after Thanksgiving lunch yesterday and drove to Phoenix for a short little vacation. We are taking the boys to Castles N’ Coasters tomorrow. They are so excited to ride the various rides they haven’t been able to stop talking about it for three days. My first miniature golf experience was at Castles N’ Coasters back in the mid-eighties so it will be fun to go again. Hopefully this time my card won’t be littered with quad and quintuple bogeys.
