I'm writing this morning from the Decatur Conference Center and Hotel in beautiful Decatur, Illinois. No, really, it is! The little guy and I tagged along on bigger Fred's business trip just to see something different (hmmm 10 hours in the car...) but so far we are genuinely enjoying Decatur.
First, it's 40 degrees warmer than home, yeah!
Second, there's lots of historical architecture, double yeah!
Third, it's still the midwest so everyone says hello and is all friendly and up in your business, fantastic!
Apparently Decatur has experienced some shrinkage of its population, so there are all these gorgeous old buildings that are just a bit run down. The conference center we're staying at on the edge of town is largely empty but really nice (and I enjoy a bit of desolation).

blooming!
It's been really nice to experience a Spring that isn't just the melting of snow, too.

The boy and I spent all day yesterday walking the downtown. He got a bit wiped out from so much brightness and warmness.
