Wild flowers seen on a recent walk through an interesting community.

I recently wrote about a town that is the next one over from mine named Cottleville. What I didn’t mention is that in this small town it is very popular to own and drive a golf cart around to get from place to place.

I don’t know how or why this started but they have even poured extra wide sidewalks throughout town to accommodate all of the golf carts. And if there are no sidewalks, people merely drive them in the streets often holding up traffic since they don’t go as fast as the speed limit is set at.

On this particular walk, I was on a path at a park in Cottleville walking through a partially wooded area and in my short ten minute walk 3 golf carts, at various times, flew past me at high speeds blaring music. Years ago this path provided a peaceful walk for me, but not this day.
Maybe I would understand the allure of driving all over town in these carts if I lived there, but to me they are a nuisance, unnecessary, and disruptive to many things.
I think I may be getting more crabby in my old age! 😉
