While not exactly what you’re talking about, one of the cool things to do on a pleasant weekend night is walk from Brickstore to Mac MacGee’s – as you come over the top of the Marta plaza you will see dozens of people sitting and standing on the steps in front of Iberian Pig, just hanging out with a drink while they presumably wait for a table. It is alive and social and spontaneous. A very cool public scene that describes what Decatur is, very well.

I never did tell y’all about the last City Meeting– the one where they approved the budget. Well, Chris showed up and had us all anticipating him giving his unvarnished take on the City’s spending on projects, etc. during the public input portion- but when the time came, he didn’t go up to speak! Talk about disappointment! Definitely, the commissioners felt let down– you could see it on their faces! Afterward, both the Mayor and Fred beelined over to check in with him. I thought one of them might feel his forehead to make sure he was alright! :0)

(Yes, I fussed at Chris in person about him not engaging folks on here– we’ll win him over one of these days!)

Chris trolls for trolls and doesn’t respond.

especially with the lovely summer weather we’ve been having, the restaurants who could pull this off would be making money hand over fist.

and yes, having enjoyed lots of meals in Europe like this, l have no doubt people would love it here. i can feel the breeze and hear the strolling musicians now . . .
