my main {street} girls

there’s nothing I appreciate more than a carefree, fun day with good friends at this juncture in my life.  naturally, after a cold winter and months of hibernation, a little girl time was in order.  although a full day can be hard to manage these days i’m thankful for any adult only time i can get with my friends.  this time we chose main street in ames.

photo cred to ISU - isn't it such a cute main street?!

since college i've wanted to spend hours walking main street.  it’s every bit a perfect, nostalgic main street with quaint little specialty shops, boutiques, and tasty little confection.  despite some ominous clouds and an equally worrisome forecast the weather on saturday was seasonably warm with no rain to be had.  we spent several hours shopping the stores, eating, talking, and eating some more before ending our day at the Della Viti wine bar.
