Seasons ... Greetery

So the last few weeks have been an adjustment for the most part we have been getting used to the idea of getting up before 9am. I'm sure if you asked Andrew or collin they would laugh and say that we are trying to get used to the idea of getting up before noon, which I assure you is not true. So anyway the work has been good, and settling in nicely.
I try to walk 'Uptown' (they call their downtown uptown here... Something about the fact that the core was built up on a hill.) daily for my lunch hour. I find it so interesting, there was a fire in the 1800's that burned allot of the core area but there is a big portion left of old buildings and churches built in the mid to late 1700's so it is so interesting to check out. The places are all built side by side, and of either brick or rock, the fact that the road is steep and goes up the hill and you can see all the streets going down as you make your way up and over the top of the hill is so interesting. You can tell when you come to the newer houses because they are mainly made of wood built in the early to late 1800's. Anyway this place has lots to explore and see.
