Locally Grown

Total milage: approx 3.5 miles

Yesterday Kim and I kept it local by just wandering around the neighborhood to some of our favorite places, and checking out some new stuff: We checked out the new record shop, the farmers market, the corner farmers market, and grabbed a burrito at the bodega with one outside table. 

The beauty of buying in an up-and-coming neighborhood is watching it actually come up. Glendale Blvd is where its all happening which is the street that Kim and I first stopped for lunch at 3 years ago while apartment searching. It was that lunch that sealed the deal for us on Atwater Village. To us it felt like a beach town without the sand, fog, and traffic-perfect. 


Sometimes its just really nice to enjoy the few blocks that surround you, no driving, no planning, no matter how often you've see them.

  2. The older I get the the BIGGER the small things really are to me. Wisdom? Or shrinking world view?
