[PRCo] Re: Washington: Sorry, Library Is Closed

[Herb Brannon]

My apartment to Akron library is only 35 minutes. My apartment to Cleveland
library via park & ride method is 35 minutes. My apartment to Cleveland
library via 100% public transit is 57 (may as well say 60) minutes. Driving
to Akron really is the best considering hobby shops and national park
scenery. I also have fun with the 'driving' part of any trip. Probably the
reason I like driving as an occupation.
