I like living in the country....I like living in a small town....I like the fact that going to Starbucks for coffee is a BIG DEAL because the nearest one is 45 minutes away....however....it is the smaller things that sometimes remind me of why I like living in the sticks....like, for instance...
hmmm.....the fact that...in MY small town.... WE'D NOTICE IF A GUY WAS DEAD ON OUR STREET CORNER....
THIS is why I don't like crowds of people....don't get me wrong...I LOVE visiting big cities and becoming one of the unknowns wandering around with the herd..seeing the sights, taking in a night at the theatre, or a good meal somewhere.....but, after a visit, I want to come back to the rural life....
Amen to that. A glorious day it will be when I can finally put the West Coast and it's associated woes in my rear view mirror permanently.
