I spent 30 minutes Tuesday morning at the corner of Route 66 and College Street, watching life pass in front of me.
Here's what I saw:

QCS reporter Jerrene Bradley spent 30 minutes Tuesday morning at the corner of Route 66 and College Street.
• A few people stopped at the Fina station to fill up their vehicles, including Justin Powell. He was on his motorcycle, headed to work.
- At the Circle K, a Budweiser truck was making its delivery for the day.
- A line of people at the Cornerstone donut shop were getting their treats to start the day. I saw Frank Gutierrez, Bobby Naranjo, at least two tourist vehicles and other customers. Every now and then I could catch the smell of the pastries drifting across the street.
- Steve Smith and his crew of workers were seen coming out of Burns Lumber with materials for their job.
- A Pepsi truck was headed east probably on its way to make deliveries.
- Arch Hurley, railroad and state highway vehicles were headed west on their way to work.
- There were four pedestrians walking along Route 66, two of whom used the crosswalks. A man and woman jaywalked on their way to Circle K.
- It was a breezy, cool morning with the temperature at 77 degrees and a mostly cloudy sky.
- The smell of donuts finally got the best of me. Munch, munch.
