Taking a walk on the Decatur Square
“Wait- what’s that over there?”
Looks Like Godzilla, but not quite the same-
He likes books, he must be tame……
Tom, Will, Mary and Angie watch Godzilla being inflated
Program Director Tom Bell tries to escape.......
See you on the Square!

I plan on bringing a piece to hang on the clothesline – this is always a very fun event. Nice to mingle with the artists and talk to them about their art. After viewing the artwork, walk up the stairs to Eddie’s Attic for some great music and a beverage.
See you on the Square!

Today’s weather was perfect for the start of the Blue Sky Concert Series on the Square in downtown Decatur. Jennifer Daniels came all the way from Nashville to play for the noon-time crowd that gathered under the trees. Hope to see everyone on Sunday night for the first September Concert on the Square, featuring Sweet AlisAbeth.

Looking for something to do tonight, and on a tight budget? Karen Skellie writes in that Angela Easterling will be appearing at the Decatur Library tonight at 7 pm and the performance is free.
“Angela was raised in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains and her country roots run deep. Her unique sound and soulful writing display her enchanting brand of neo-traditionalist country that mixes hard-edged honky tonk with fetching ballads. You’ll hear a hint of gospel and authentic acoustic instruments, but she’s not your usual country girl.”
I have been quite impressed with the number of free activities offered at the Decatur Branch. GA Center for the Book brings in great authors, and Karen has been bringing in some popular music performances. This is all in addition to being able to borrow books, DVDs, CDs, Books on Tape……the list goes on. My son and I visit at least once a week.
Great work Library folks!!

We are so excited that Decatur is among the first around to install solar powered trash compactors! The compactors are being installed in front of Starbuck’s and Java Monkey as we speak. Jerry Knotts and his crew are working hard to get them going and I can’t wait to see them in action.
Jerry Knotts shows off the new compactors.
