Phone Apps for big city transportation

I grew up on the West coast. I am use to driving myself where ever I want to go. I had a short bit of my work commute life in Portland, OR and Austin, TX on buses and trains, but my favorite is commuting on my bike.

So for the first time I used Uber to get from my sister'site house in Plainfield NJ to the near by NJ Transit train station. I used the NJ Transit Apps to research getting to the World Trade Center. My wife Sylvia wanted to see it today. I took this opportunity to use my phone to figure it all out.

Here are photos of the Plainfield Train Station .

Georgia on my mind

Texas was not deep enough in the south for me so I relocated to Albany, Georgia. I have been her almost a month and the adventure of living in a new city and working at a new institution are still fresh. This week week as I walked across the campus with my paper notebook in hand I was whistling as I passed through groups of students go to classes. I noticed how everyone of them was either talking on a mobile device or listening to music on them. I marveled at how odd I must seem to them as I walked without having any electronic device turned on and instead i was making the music with my lips. Albany Georgia is a lot like Portland, only smaller and really flat. Albany has the Flint River running through the middle of the downtown area and lots of pine and pecan trees all over.
