Your downtown has a lot more going for it than my nearest country town to Beetley. I wouldn’t mind encountering some live jazz as I wander around the shops, or go to the bank.
Best wishes, Pete.

Nice pics and interesting quote. I often though of the city as a fishbowl and we’re all guppies, except for the sharks…

Yes. And I was just reading an article in the NYTimes about walking with awe – seeing the wonderful in the ordinary or not so ordinary. It’s uplifting and good for the soul.
