I drive too and it's 10 minutes if there's no traffic, so I sometimes go home at lunch time. I would vastly prefer to take public transportation and do the environment a favor, but our town isn't really set up for that--I'd have to ride to a central transfer point and then take another bus to get out here (kind of like flying from San Francisco to Los Angeles with a stopover in Denver). In warm weather, I'd rather ride my bike for the exercise, but I have to pick up my son at school and that's ten minutes (by car) in the OTHER direction from my house, so no way.

If I could walk or take public transportation, I'd do that for just about every destination but the supermarket.
