I'd rather be sleeping. I'm not feeling more productive. There's more to work on. I got up when I was supposed to buy my eyes feel like pillows and I'm a zombie. I've been doing laundry, but maybe I'll read for a little bit.
We went to a seminar yesterday called "Can Small Towns Be Cool?" It was an interesting presentation by a man from Michigan State University. He visited 250 towns in the Midwest and interviewed folks in the towns, visited their cultural assets, observed the city politics. He found that the people in towns who were most cooperative and found the most information/energy sharing were likely to have a cultural asset which was homegrown and authentic.
Organic projects, rooted in the communities strengths were likely successes.
So, can my town be cool? I think so.
