Wandered around in and out of shops downtown. It is a sweet little town with many photo ops for tourists and lots of plaques mentioning local lore such as the fact that O Henri lived there for a while as did Elisabeth Blackwell, the first woman awarded a medical degree in the United States (1849).

The architecture is varied and interesting. City Hall has a terra cotta tiled octagonal roof and the Grove Arcade is a once public market, now mini mall with shops and restaurants.

There seems to be a fairly large homeless element. There were also lots of street performers including a troupe of people celebrating May Day a little early with Morris dancing.
