Rob & Robin
Summary.
Back in 1998, not long after my wife and I moved to the Boston suburbs, I heard of plans to run a bike path through the central part of our town. When I attended a public meeting on the topic, I learned that the process was well underway: Community goals had been defined; routes had been proposed; a feasibility report had been produced. Procedurally, there was still plenty to do, but I left the gathering on something of a civic high: Here was a local community (my community!) coming together to get a good thing done.
