Downtown Girl


I really am a downtown girl.  I love being downtown and now that our offices are located right on the edge of downtown it's an easy walk to all of the attractions that the city center has to offer.  This last week, I walked to the new Westin Hotel and had lunch on the patio at the hotel's Province Restaurant.

 It was a perfect day for sitting outside with a iced tea and watching the various business lunches that were taking place around me.

    Downtown does have the best selection of restaurants that people can walk to for lunch.

    You make us feel like we're sitting there with you. Wait, is that your iced tea or mine? What terrific photos and needless to say, you had your camera with you and in the "ready" mode! Nicely done!

    Good for you, Sharon. I'm glad you are enjoying the new downtown location. I liked working downtown and living close enough to get in and out quickly enough.

    I spent the day wandering around downtown with Magpie and Ramblin' Kathy so I can say with confidence that you are indeed a lucky girl!

    Yes, Tracy was just saying to day how she envies your wealth of subject matter with all the time you spend downtown. :) We rode the light rail! First time for Tracy and me.

    I spent Saturday with two friends in downtown Phoenix. It's a great place. I recall back in the '80s when I spent a lot of time downtown only being able to find two or three places to have lunch. That's definitely all changed!
