Twilight, Twice
14 October 2005 09:25Last night
jmaynard and I went to a restaurant in Sherburn, MN for supper. This was partly to enjoy the good food there, and partly to satisfy our curiosity about what will become of the place. We did enjoy the food, but not the news. The place has been sold and will remain officially open until 15 November, which is a Tuesday. It'll likely still be open after that, but on a "What do you have left?" basis until the end of the week. Eventually a Kum & Go will be there instead of the restaurant. It's a good spot for such a thing, but we'll miss the restaurant. I expect we'll be visiting the restaurant a bit more than usual as its days dwindle.
After supper we looked for a place to go walking, as we both need the exercise. Unfortunately the park in Sherburn is as tiny, like the town. That delayed our walk until we got back to Fairmont, around sunset. By the time we'd finished it was a nice twilight and beginning to get dark. I think I enjoyed that walk, even if it was in town, more than many others. There's just something about being out after sunset that feels good to me. I'd prefer more starlight and less streetlight, but it was still pretty good.
