Time do do my part again this week to connect this small town with the news. Thursday means my guaranteed 10k step day visiting a bunch of cafes and news stands with a real, physical newspaper with local stories written by real local journalists.
I normally wouldn’t be out the door before 8am unless it was for golf but the weather seems to be holding, though much cooler at night.
I am reminded that autumn has officially landed and the tree across the street is hinting at its upcoming display of bright red.
This morning, my routine is interrupted by a networking event with the downtown business association. Rubbing shoulders with other business owners, community leaders and the mayor is great when the coffee is free!
Back on the road and the sky might look a little warmer than it actually is as we creep towards October.
Out in the country, Mater is still wearing his summer clothes and proudly waving his flag at passers by.
I may have discovered his older brother! A little more tough and ominous looking but apparently still on the road as opposed to resting in a field.
Heading downtown, I pause to look around rather than scurry efficiently through all my stops.
It really is a nice small town when you take the time to enjoy it like the theatre goers would.
The square in the city is rather slow this time of year but I kinda like when things slow a bit heading into fall
My weekly view from the steps of city hall show a little less foot traffic than summer and that deep blue sky that is bringing the chill during the evenings.
A quick stop in the old church restaurant which has recently been rebranded as Bijou at the Church. Grand reopening soon and I hope to share that with you.
I cap the long day off walking the trails at the dog park with my little buddy. It is getting dark a little earlier these days but the mosquitos are finally dieing off as frost threatens.
The sun has gone down on another busy day and I am glad for the wonderful fall weather and 10k more steps to keep me in the top 200 @actifit users of all time!
Thanks again for walking with me.
