Downtown Doings

I hope you got to join us downtown on Halloween for "Trick or Treat on State Street."

We had a great crowd, and many clever costumes. My favorite was big sister as Little Bo Peep, and two younger brothers as her sheep.

The weather cooperated as well, and it was nice to have daylight a little later than we're used to, since Congress moved back the end of daylight savings time.

Right now, the brick dust and paintbrushes are flying, as building owners and their contractors race the coming winter to spruce up our downtown buildings. Things are really looking good. If you haven't been down here in a few weeks, you should swing by. You'll see some pretty amazing changes.
