I live in Disneyland... oops... St. Charles


There's no way to deny it, St. Charles is a lot like a small downtown Disneyland. Every now and again as I walk around downtown St. Chuck (as we like to call it), I am struck by how totally picturesqe my town is. It's one of those cases where you are occasionally blind to your surroundings but all it takes is a gorgeous fall day to bring it all vividly back to mind. Take today for example; 78 degrees, driving with the convertible top down sort of weather... and there we were, walking around in short sleeves and soaking up the fall beauty. Now, give us 24-48 hrs. and all that could change dramatically. But just for today, it was perfect. Check out these photos and you'll see what I mean.


A vine covered winery on Main St.

Just one autumnally decorated shop of the over 80 on Main Street.

Yeah, the color is actually THAT beautiful!
