Well, it's official. I am one of two Western Ave Scouts. For the next six months, I'll be sharing my experiences on Western Ave via this blog, Twitter, and Instagram. Follow me with the tag #WesternAveScout. Expect random stories, photos, and general tomfoolery. I think my goal for this is to inspire one person to go out, meet all the business owners, and get nominated as the next Top Scout. Let's get out there and support some local businesses!

As a young man, I am definitely the secondary target market for most Western Ave shops. I won't be purchasing a lot of things for myself, so most of it will be going to my lady and maybe some deserving strangers.

Here's a look at what The MakeUp Bar hooked me up with so far. I'll definitely be in to grab some Jack Black products.
