Pack a lunch and read a book

My mission, get from my apartment to my PO box using only public transportation. My PO box and I are separated by about 25 miles. One of Dallas’ most formidable traffic nightmares, LBJ or 635, is between us.

I call up DART to find out what combination of the 138 bus lines and 3 light rails gets me where I need to go. I’m in luck, it’s only 2 buses and a light rail. I ask her how long it will take. Between one and a half to two hours and five minutes, or three to four hours roundtrip.

This is a trip that takes about an hour and a half by car, roundtrip.
