Downtown - Autumn AM


As I rode into work this morning, via the Riverwalk, as I do each day of the week, I had to stop a few times just to take in the view. While we all get frustrated with those in power for their inaction and sometimes seemingly outright raping of The Core, we need to stop and realize that we have a gorgeous city here sitting along the St. Johns River. So here are a couple shots of what my morning commute looks like these days. With views like this, a city like this, we really need to step up and make the most of what we've been entrusted with. Shouting at the rain is no longer going to cut it. Words now need to be followed by action. I'm not entirely sure what that "action" needs to be just yet, but I know that there are enough of us out there of the same mind that change can be affected in our city. It's time for our generation to take a greater responsibility for the future of Jacksonville.

Thank you for sharing the beautiful views! When I was visiting you in July I would admire the sunrise from your front porch every day. It is one of the many gracious gifts given to us everyday that most don't even realize. I love you.
