September’s here which means the last days of summer are near. It has definitely been a very long, hot summer for me. I’m generally not a fan of the summer months, which is funny since they say people who are born in the summer months tend to love that time of year. I’m generally a lover of all things Autumn/Fall.

Speaking of L-O-V-E, I am LOVING all of the extra time that I have. Now, I don’t feel like I’m rushing to get everything done, and more importantly, I can distinguish between the days. With my old schedule, my days ran into each other and that left me completely wiped out.

So with my free time, I get into a lot. Thursday, I visited Downtown Baton Rouge. I’ve never really explored downtown in the daytime. I’ve been in the city at night to attend parties, but I’ve never really walked around to see what Downtown Baton Rouge has to offer. Now, in actuality, I was down there specifically looking for the Smoothie King that my Smoothie King app swore was there – Telenav begged to differ though. – _ – But here are a few shots of Downtown in September. (Although it doesn’t look any different from Downtown in August, but allow me to have my little moment. )

Did I have fun? Not really. Downtown is pretty boring, in my opinion, but others seem to love it. Maybe because I went on a Thursday – in the morning – in the heat. IDK, but it was nothing really to rave over.

    Most ‘business’ type downtown areas aren’t all that fun during the day – such as a large portion of Ottawa’s. Glad you’re getting more free time though, that’s always good. Love the pictures!

    I love the pictures. I definitely love going to Downtown Boston whenever I get a chance. I like taking pictures of it during the day time because it is really pretty! When it is near Christmas time, Downtown Boston looks super pretty with the lights!

    Glad to hear you’re enjoying your free time 😀

      I’ve always wanted to visit Boston. I love the historic feel/atmosphere that is has.

      I bet it’s really beautiful in winter.
