    Welcome to your Highlands Era, let’s talk about all of the things you’re going to do with your main character energy. Try a 5 minute walk along your classic tree lined street, past the park, to Ada Blvd (yes THE Ada Blvd) and directly into the river valley. Maybe you’ll just keep on strolling over to grab a fox burger and a kind ice cream cone. On the walk home, notice how all your neighbors pass the vibe check? Yeah, welcome to Highlands. When you get home take the time to really absorb the character, aged like fine wine. From the OG hardwood to the coved ceilings to the fire wallpaper in the kitchen, your HQ is on point. Go out back. Do it. You have a literal orchard in your yard. This summer: apricots, cherries, and raspberries. Fresh home-picked fruit hits different. When you ask the folks what they think, lowkey they’ll approve of the larger than average lot, because, land. Don’t sleep on this one, your future self will roast you for missing it. More details
