A Day Away

18 Comments/ 478/ 0

Whew! I have been working at the AAUW Used Book Sale since last Tuesday in some form so I decided I needed to take a break on Tuesday of this week. Chris and I planned a little trip to one of our favorite places — Greenville, SC. It is under an hour to get there and it is just a nice little trip for the day.

However….it was projected to be a really. hot day with a chance of thunderstorms so we decided to do the downtown early and then hit a museum after lunch so we wouldn’t be out in the heat. It was a good move and while it didn’t rain on us, it was very hot. Our car read 99 degrees. Whew.

Our first stop was a place that even though it has a different name than the last time we visited is still the same great food and atmosphere. Located right on Main Street this is one of our favorite spots in Greenville.

Cute decor and as you can imagine, Bonjour Main specializes in crepes. Last time I got a sweet selection of Nutella and bananas and this time I went for a more savory selection of bacon, egg and potato with a lovely sauce. It was delightful.

After breakfast we walked around the downtown a little bit and enjoyed just being outside. We really only went into one shop – the bookstore, of course.

The great thing about Greenville is that they have created a really lovely downtown area with a lot of statues, art, and places to sit and enjoy the day. It is very walkable and visitor friendly and the day we were there it was not crowded at all and we were able to just take our time walking and enjoying things.

Of course there is Falls Park on the Reedy which is just lovely.

If you are ever in the area you must visit downtown Greenville. This is just a very small example of what you can enjoy. Come back tomorrow when I hope to share a bit more about our day away.

Thanks for stopping by. Hope you are staying cool. Leave me a comment and remember that all comments made on the blog this month mean a 50 cent donation to our Comments for a Cause — Uvalde Victims Relief Fund.

This short book was one that looked like it would be a fun read. I honestly did not enjoy it all that much---it was a lot of characters bickering and while some of the writing was witty and funny it was not that kind of book that made m...

This is quite a book! I had it recommended to me by several people and while I thought it might be a little dark and depressing it made me have a better understanding of what life in this time period was like. The strength of the huma...

Another great book by John Green. I have become a huge fan of John Green since my reading of A Fault in our Stars and this book was another that did not disappoint me at all. It was a story of a child prodigy, a lot of anagrams, and a b...
