Yeah, aint that great!  There is a sense of freedom that comes from being 
able to walk from the farthest reaches of the parking lot.  No more fighting to 
get to the closes spot to the buildings.  The walk is invigorating.  There are 
things to see in the parking lot.  Usually the car is all alone in the far 
corner of the lot so you can keep an eye on it more easily.  And the walking 
helps in the conditioning program for the trail.
