Back to #ButteAmerica #Itsabigdamndeal by (me!) ~topps
i just recently went on about butte -what a potential gold mine, so let me cut to:
how fascinating i find myself once again /laughing..
not literally 'myself'
but, more specifically my imagination
and not necessarily 'my' imagination,
but human imagination in general.
***
i.e., /i always feel so academic when i i.e., things..
anyway
even though i do not have the financial resources, even though i do not have an engineering, or architectural background, -no business degree.. i know no people in high places (save God, of course) with power, influence, unlimited funds
none of this real world lack prevents my imagination from seeing what a place could be;
and as of late, my imagination keeps showing me what butte plaza mall -could be.
***
and if i could somehow print out what i get to see in my imagination..
but even that lack, doesn't prevent me from trying to find the words to share:
what is currently a very large, but unfortunately vacant, dead mall, with like, only 2 or 3 stores in business..
gets converted into a massively impressive, exciting and engaging, first-of-its kind indoor recreation center for the youth: bowling alley, skating rink, billiards, arcades, library, live theater/open mics, indoor swimming, skateboard park, batting cages, trampolines, escape rooms, tutor halls, arts/crafts activities, community science projects, community movies/shows on jumbo screens.. cooking classes, singing lessons... and of course, live concerts!
safe, with security, family friendly, temperature controlled.. a wonderful, constructive place for butte youth/families -coffee shops, mini restaurants, picnic areas
tracks on the in and outside for races.. people, remote cars..
and because it is such a blessing directly to the youth/families, but ultimately benefits everyone,
instead of paying per visit, or annual membership fees..
small amounts from the entire population go towards..
if i had it to give; i would give it...
grateful for the free, unrestricted gift of human imagination
hallelujah & amen
