Southern Kind of Life

Barack Obama will be in the Triangle area in Chapel Hill on Monday evening.  I hear there are long lines at Moorehead Planetarium to get tickets, but it appears there is no need to line up.  Tickets can be found online.  I just signed up and it prompted me to e-mail something to my “friends, family, and neighbors”.  Instead, I’m going to post the suggested e-mail (with all it’s information) here.  Even if you don’t support Obama, I think it’s useful to go see what the candidates have to say.

Phillip Barron and Jack Edinger have started a project to create maps of local triangle bike maps. It looks like they’ve got a good start at lots of road bike lanes and greenway trails. They seem to be a bit lacking for mountain bike trails, but they are asking for more collaborators. This looks like a great project and I encourage people to go look and offer to help.
