I love what San Angelo has recently done with N. Chadbourne st. downtown. The dirt trail is just like the old days, perfect for riding horses over and more smooth and even than the "paved" roads. Let's do the same to the rest of the town. Perhaps the university kids could put something together about horses, boots, and moccasins.
