Then….
I would walk downtown to some of my favorite local hot spots
a.m.
Morning Coffee at the Mudhouse
if it is Saturday… head to the Farmer's Market on Water Street (so much more than food)
then… some Ice Skating at the end of the mall (year round)

What else did I miss? Please write in additions.



I recommend Moxie Hair Lounge for a nice, relaxing spa day – they’re just a few blocks up from the DT Mall at 2nd St. & Garrett. Also, if you want to make the trek up West Main, I highly recommend checking out the West Main Market for some of the best local gourmet food you’ll find anywhere (Gearhart’s Chocolate – yum!).
How could you possibly miss The Artful Lodger. They bring a new “fresh” face to the mall.
