I Would Walk 1,012 Miles

July 31, 2008

Google maps has a new walking directions feature and it’s awesome! And for one of the country’s most walkable cities… I’m sure this will come in handy!

You can get walking directions and estimates.. even from Chicago to Boston.

Walking Chicago to Boston

I mean sure it would be over 1,000 mile and take about 13 days but hey at least you would know your route. I also like google’s like warning to “use caution when walking in unfamiliar areas.” And don’t walk at night and use the buddy system..

But seriously, what a cool, green feature to add!

Check it out at http://maps.google.com

So my Daily Candy Alerts led me to this awesome company, Bright Lights-Little City .

Heather Wells makes this awesome lanterns and light shades from cocktail umbrellas..SO adorable..and good use of them, too! I mean I love a tropical drink with a umbrella but so cute in lamp form too! I just love kitschy accessories!
