Photo Walk Around Downtown Rochester in the Rain (at Times)

Downtown is changing rapidly. Don't let a little traffic keep you away, there is lots to see and plenty to do.

Yesterday I sponsored a free photowalk around downtown Rochester.  Every indication was that we would have wonderful weather...then a dark cloud the size of Rhode Island rolled in and taunted us.  It would spit rain for a few minutes then quit.  We sought refuge in doorways and under canopies, all the while the group kept shooting.  I have included 10 of my favorites with this post.

The streets and sidewalks were very quiet.  I hope those of you reading this will make an effort to get downtown and visit a few businesses.

At the end of the walk several of us had dinner at Penny Black at 4th and Walnut.  I have driven past many times but never been inside, what a treat.  I loved the decor and the food was great.  I'll be going back.
