    here is a pic of my street. as you can see, very green. we live in "high density" housing (which basically means very small yard) . zoning laws require a level of recreation, open areas, and green belts. this means i have 4 parks within an easy 5 minute bike ride, 7 parks within 10 minutes.

    today was a rare opportunity as my neighbor parked his Pri on the street (very rare) so we have 3 Pri's out of 5 cars. just down the street we also have an HCH, another Pri and a FEH.

    Nice. I have a choice of multiple routes for my daily commute. I usually take the one with the most trees. It's just more calming and peaceful.
