This is living...

In small towns the word friends takes on a new meaning. It's not just someone you go to dinner with...it's someone who lives alongisde you. I have been blessed to have great friends all through my life and I'm always amazed and the good heartedness I am treated to. You're never anonymous in a small town and there's always a connection between 2 people...whether they know it or not. Small towns tend to revolve around youth and recreation. This blog is about these experiences, good and bad, of living in a small, rural town with good people...as well as living big...keeping a marriage alive, being successful at a job, raising 3 kids, caring for pets, and attempting to tend a garden.
