New Theme Thursday, Aug 31 2006 

I changed the theme because my photos were getting cut off (and in this version of wordpress you can’t alter the template unless you pay :( ). I like this template better. Looks cleaner and less distracting I think. And my photos fit. Still working on the city blog links.

Simeons Thursday, Aug 31 2006 

simeons, originally uploaded by poetdiva.

Here’s a shot of the interior (notice the lovely old woodwork, ceiling and mirrors) of a restaurant/bar called Simeons on the eastern edge of the commons area downtown. The bartender was quite laid back and asked US for advice on relationships :) He was the blurry one. I had a few nice glasses of Gewürztraminer there. Usually a bit more heady than I like, but this one was good. It was from France, but now I can’t remember the vintner. Hrrmmmm.
