Day 15 - Uptown

We've been walking early in the morning when it's as cool as it's going to get in the day.  We used to walk at a park but there are too many gunshots in and around the park (not to mention slamming car doors) and now my dog is afraid to go there because of the noise.  He doesn't like the sidewalks around our neighborhood either because the neighbors set off firecrackers every night from early June through mid-July.  So, we've taken to walking uptown, along Main St.

In a couple of hours, when the shops and government offices open, the street will be bumper to bumper with cars and semi trucks.  This photo is of a rare moment when the street is just about empty.  This picture makes the town seem drab and lifeless, but actually, it's almost quaint.  There's not much to see or do uptown, but they do try to make it look nice with trees and flowers and such. 

We're halfway through our 30 Day Challenge.  It's been interesting so far.  I've enjoyed reading the posts of others more than I've enjoyed trying to find a photo to take everyday.  We'll see what the next 15 days bring.
