A couple of years ago, I used to love to head into the city (Portland ME at that time) and take photos of things going on in the street. People, activity, stores, sales, events, fairs. All good. However, a lot has changed in the economy since then, and my little town of Comer GA is suffering. The main street is practically deserted, store fronts are sporting 'for sale' and for lease' signs. Not a person is seen strolling here on a mid-day Saturday. Pretty sad. Maybe things will pick up when the local Farmer's Market opens.

These are lovely old buildings! In today's economy the cost of replacing them with like quality and style would be prohibitive. I do hope someone with vision and faith will maintain them until the perfect buyer comes along and restores them to their former glory.
