The kids' walk to school is about 12 minutes at 6 year old pace; mr. flea drives about 4 miles. I cannot imagine driving 35 miles a day to work (here, you could live in either of two other states and commute if you're willing to drive that far!)
We got almost no snow overnight, although it's lightly snowing now, so all systems are go for regular plans. Interview-ma for me at 12, please!
Apparently I'm 2 miles from my office by the most direct route, which I didn't quite realize, and means I really should walk home more. It's a 10 minute drive.
1.1 miles. Easy bike ride or walk if it isn't too hot. I keep an extra shirt in the office in case I get too warm on the way to work.
Less than 3 miles, currently. Unfortunately, the most direct route has no shoulder at some key points, not great for walking or biking, but I can come home for lunch easily, even if I'm only taking a half hour break.
Being able to come home for lunch is a great benefit. The food choices are often healthier and I love having a few minutes to put my feet up in my comfy chair and relax a bit before heading back.
I mostly have been taking advantage of that when I make my lunch but leave it on the kitchen table instead of bringing it in to work.
9.5 miles, or about an hour by train or bike.
For a moment, I thought that was a snow report.
How long in distance are people's commutes?
12.1 miles, according to Google maps. About 25-30 minutes, depending on if I drop Tim off or he drives himself.
