{my downtown}

Other than the afternoon naps and the freedom to choose my hours and being able to drink margaritas during lunch, I think the best part of working for myself is being able to take breaks during the day. Sometimes I just need to get out of the house, and so that's exactly what Robert and I did recently. I needed to get a few more Christmas gifts, but I didn't want to go to the mall. 

We have a pretty amazing little downtown here in Ventura, with lots of family owned restaurants and shops that sell local and handmade items. It's really wonderful, and I'm so thankful that I live in such a special and beautiful place!

Do you have a downtown in your city? What's it like?
