Retirement Friday

I spent the day just bumming around Hayward.  Haircut, bank, browsing some stores.  Hayward has a fun Main Street with shops along both sides for 3-4 blocks.  Hayward Bakery and Cheese Shop, Tremblay's Fudge Shop, many t-shirt stores (I saw "My life may suck but at least I'm not a Vikings fan!" in a window), the former library has several stores - one of them being Destination 54843 which is all Hayward clothing, Hayward mugs, etc; a bookstore, a fancy cooking gadget store, many Northwoodsy-type stores, a bakery for dogs, 3 restaurants and lots more stores on the cross streets off the Main Street.  There is diagonal parking on both sides as well for easy in and out.  Pedestrians rule so vehicles stop to let you cross.  Believe it or not, this was the first time that I have browsed since we moved here October 1.  Probably won't be the last.
