WABA Action Committee for Prince George’s County hosted an event on Tuesday (sorry so late) to kick off the campaign to finish the Trolley Trail and fill the gap in the Route 1 trail network
Starting at the Skate Park at the Northwest Branch Trail, we will walk north towards the current end of the Trolley Trail, discussing challenges and opportunities for creating a new trail link along Rhode Island Ave. We will finish with happy hour and more discussion at Franklins Brewery at the current end of the Trolley Trail.
It looks like they had a good turn-out despite my letting you all down.

“AND NOW LISTEN: THE RULE OF THE FINAL INCH! The realm of the Final Inch! In the language of Maximum Clarity it is immediately clear what that is. The work has been almost completed, the goal almost attained, everything completely right and the difficulties overcome. But the quality of the thing is not quite right. Finishing touches are needed, maybe still more research. In that moment of fatigue and self-satisfaction it is especially tempting to leave the work without having attained the apex of quality. Work in the area of the Final Inch is very, very complex and also especially valuable, because it is executed by the most perfected means. In fact, the rule of the Final Inch consists in this: not to shirk this crucial work. Not to postpone it, for the thoughts of the person performing the task will then stray from the realm of the Final Inch. And not to mind the time spent on it, knowing that one’s purpose lies not in completing things faster but in the attainment of perfection.”
