To FC, With Love

I'm having some kind of new love affair with Fort Collins. 
We're in our 7th year living here, but ever since we moved to the downtown area a couple months ago--where I can walk to most places that I enjoy in this town--I've been enamored of everything I see and encounter. 

The people make me laugh with delight: walking home from work this week I freaked out 2 undergrads trying to hide their joint as I followed them through a hidden pathway; yesterday a skateboarder almost went head-on into a tree as he passed me wishing a good morning; and "gentleman" Liberty, with his dancing and swirling, kept dropping his tax sign on the side of the road!

Some of the images that make me smile in this big-little-town:

Fun & Silly Signs

New locally-owned coffee shop that I love




The train that I ran to beat over Mason Street....
