[Vision2020] The Way It Was Meant to Be . . .

[Tom Hansen]

I have passingly chatted with employees of some of the concerned businesses along Main Street.  Hodgins loves the concept as their store has been fairly busy these past couple Saturdays.  

Seeya round town, Moscow.

Hardly anyone showed for the first two meetings.  Then word got out among downtown business owners, and the third meeting was well attended by a contingent of owners that were dead set against it.

But, by in large, I couldn't see why a business would complain about an event putting hundreds of people at their doorstep every week during the summer.  Seemed like a great opportunity to me.

And, since I was downtown anyhow, I dropped into a few stores I normally don't frequent; found a pair of socks at Hyperspud, a book at Bookpeople for my grandson, and a pair of pants at StormCellar....also discovered I'd sold a piece of art from my Howard Huges Video show from ArtWalk. Wonderful day!! Huzzah, Moscow, Heart of the Arts!
