Jesse missed her friends back home, she knew 100 miles wasn't that far away, it would only take an hour and a half to drive up for a visit but she might want to stay and she couldn't have that, she had been putting off taking a look around for community because she didn't want to run into Ben, the local veterinarian, she had met the first night she was in town. he had offered to give her a tour of their country town but she had put it off for over a week now and she was getting cabin fever because she missed her morning run and nightly Piyo class, she needed something to take up part of her day and there had to be something in this town for her to do.
Jesse wasn't sure where to start but she knew she had to get out of this house, she thought about asking the local library for ideas and she wanted to jog over to ask.
She was glad she found her tennis shoes that morning, she also needed to stop by Waymart to pick up groceries for the week, she was upset when she found out they didn't deliver the only place that delivered in this small town was the pizza palace.She still had three weeks of summer vacation left before she had to meet all the teenagers and their parents at the high school for open house. she didn't have a set number of students, she'd probably get to know all of them because she didn't think a town this small would employee more then one physical education teacher, her old school had three, one for the girls, one for the boys, and one for the track team.
Jesse pulled her long hair into a ponytail, check her makeup and headed out the door, she was excited and looking forward to seeing what the small town had offered, her house was on the back side of town so she had to jog 4 blocks to the right and then turn right and jog 6 blocks to reach the Main Street in town.
She wasn't sure what to expect when she reach the center of town, she was pleased to see a beautiful town square with a nice little waterfall in the center with benches, where people could sit around the perimeter of the waterfalls. she also liked the flowers in and around the waterfall itself, there were also San-dunes for butterfly drinking, the whole thing was really beautiful, she jogged across the street to take a seat at one of the benches.
She wanted to set a few minutes and take in the scenery and the stores around her, The street was laid out like a wagon wheel with six Street flowing from it, she noticed traffic was going in one direction around the square, straight across the street from Jesse was a country diner with a bakery on the right side, with a flower shop on the same street, just across the street from that is a shop called Art's art, then there's jewelry by Fran and across the street from that is a music store and a old fashion barbershop, then there's a beauty shop and a bookstore, on around wagon wheel Road there's a toy store and a candy store closest to the diner.
Jesse decided she would walk down towards Waymart and see what the surrounding buildings might be, it's only a few blocks down the street, she's passes the cute little Library and is pleasantly surprised when she sees a small shopping plaza a block and a half away, she walks through the plaza looking at the stores, clothing boutique advertising crocheted Specialty items and quilts, a auto parts store, a hardware store, a farm equipment store, a car wash and across the street is Waymart the local grocery store and sharing the parking lot is a feed supply store, she could see a church steeple over the top of the feed supply store, when she came to the end of the block she was going to turn around and head back in the direction she came when a purple and gold building on her left caught her attention, by the color of the building she knows what kind of place it is, she quickens her step around the corner and to the front of the building, Jesse is in heaven because it's a gym, she wasn't sure this little town would have a gym, she thought all of her workouts would have to be done at the local high school after hours, her first night in town she stopped at Waymart to pick up some groceries but it was too dark for her to see much of the town.
