Last night I attended a meeting at the community college. The commissioners and the planning committee have been developing a plan for the next 25 years for growth and success in the county. I signed up to attend on a whim. I hadn't heard of such a plan until I read about it in the paper--and even that was only an announcement of the meeting. What excited me most was all of the trails that were being proposed. While this doesn't help me now, hopefully I'll still be running in the future to take advantage of it. The other day I "found" a trail that runs near Ambler, with stone pavers to cross the creek.
But back to the meeting. I pretty much drove all around the campus to find the building. And then I was pleasantly surprised when I was the youngest and least-dressed-up person in the room. Needless to say, I felt pretty awkward in my slide-ons from 2007, jeans, and a sweatshirt. So I just sat down and kept to myself. During the public comment time, I was hoping for some drama but none happened. The meeting was adjourned and I took two soft pretzels home. It was the least they could give me.
Here's the link to the plan for those who want to learn more. I also have an extra pin if anyone wants one. Don't all jump at once.
