Today's rounds... some pics.

Made all my required footpath travel in record time. I roamed up and down Federal highway to get my mail sent off, picked up sundries for the house, and got a yummy bag of apples. (I ate two on the walk home. goo-ood.)


good morning, newt!

Dying malls give me the creeps...

that mall is on the last piece of life support. only the symbiotic relationship of maybe 4 parasitical stores keeps it alive at all.

When I first moved to Colorado and had no money, there was a dying mall within walking distance that I used to frequent. I watched as store after store closed until there was nothing left. They ended up tearing the entire place down and building restaurants and strip malls over it.

The Crossroads Mall here in Boulder is currently going through the same death stages, and nobody has any idea what to do with it. The nearby city of Thornton managed to convert their dead mall into office space and a "technology center", but I don't think Boulder can do the same, especially in today's economy.

this one is like a cicada... life returns just long enough to give hope, then it goes dormant again for a few years.

LOL. I prefer to shop online, actually. tho I'd probably spend less in a mall, as I find the environment so much more annoying.

jeez... if you went right out west on Copan's till you got to 441 and made a right, it'd be about 4 blocks to where I live!

Woo Hoo!
