Picnics, Patios Popular on Picturesque Friday Night in Downtown Decatur

Share

Clear skies and 74.3 degrees, 67% humidity is my idea of perfect weather. By the looks on the crowds on the sidewalks and patios, a lot of people agree with me.

Jessica Morgan and her kids wrestled playfully on the pavilion near the gazebo in the square. Squeals of laughter pierced the crisp golden-hour air. Tonight’s the kind of night I will try to remember when it’s winter and there’s ice on the streets and the trees are bare.

On a critical note, the Crash Test Dummies’ back catalogue hasn’t aged well, but I have to give it up for the guitarists from the HOLA patio. They’re always playing something that gets stuck in my head, so don’t watch this video if you don’t want it stuck in yours.
