Biked from Lake Forest Park to Pinehurst where I used to live when I moved to WA state in 2021. Pretty impressed to see how much has changed in 5 years. The underbelly of the Pinehurst Station. www.flickr.com/photos/18370...

The average American outlives the ability to drive by 6 to 10 years (men vs women). Seniors deserve cities where they can independently get around, and not be isolated.
