We really do live in an amazing City. Woke up early this morning and took Harley downtown @cityofwilm around 7:30. Did a 2-mile run down Front Street, around #Pier33 back around to the convention center, then ended at the #riverfrontfarmersmarket. Did some local shopping including getting some great dog treats from @myporchdawg. Then popped into @farminonfront for some local vegetables and some coffee. One of the most peaceful beautiful mornings I've had in a long time. #WilmingtonNC @wilmingtoncoast (at Downtown Wilmington)
