The city is a study in contrast. Much of the city is modern, with attractive architecture and landscaping. Other sections of the city are hovels with foul smelling open sewers lining the streets right outside the doors of homes.
This is a typical working class business district. Mostly mom and pop stores with all kinds of goods for sale and many restuarants or bars.

A reply to Limes
Over the years I've filled a number of notebooks with musings, sketches, dialogs with god, rants againest society, story ideas I'll get around to one day, and other assorted stuff. Unfotunately I've tossed most of that stuff during many moves. Most of it was crap, but every once in a while a flash of creativity would pop up. Which like standing on my head I suppressed, until a psych professor actually encouraged me to publish my thoughts on gender equality and gender roles as I had written them for class assignments. (The Psychology of Men and Women). I had never considered a blog until I came across Kirk Jusko's blog "Shadow of a Doubt" From there it became almost viral. A growing community of writers, artists and philosopher's who as Tre'e and LimesNow have said have become more than just 'tend friends. At first I was satisfied to just get the words on paper. However my fellow bloggers have inspired me to push myself a bit to become a better writer, much as my psych prof did many years ago. I appreciate it, and like a good support group I treasure the words of advice, encouragement and care that you all bring to this process. Plus you are all damn interesting.

One vote for the vintage sheet music logo ~ remember, I'm into venerable things. I should do another "Walls" post. I have a bit of sheet music up. Sorry, the blue thing would likely appeal to many people, but it makes me feel carsick.
