Walking is the perfect way of moving if you want to see into the life of things. It is the one way of freedom. If you go to a place on anything but your own feet you are taken there too fast, and miss a thousand delicate joys that were waiting for you by the wayside. Elizabeth von Arnim

Day Thirteen of Thanks

Giving Thanks Post Day Thirteen
Small Town Living

Some reasons I'm thankful to live in a small town.

I like that I'm able to walk around town doing errands.
It's nice to walk in the library and have the librarian know your name.
No traffic lights
Great place for my morning walks
Slower pace
 Knowing your neighbors
I like being part of a small town.

A happy day to you.

that does sound small. Like my dad's hometown. He used to walk around everywhere when he was a kid like an old man and that earned him the nickname "old man"

Hello, I think would like the small town living. I grew up in the city and now I live 15 minute drive to the closest town. Sounds like you are in a wonderful place. Happy weekend to you!

Hi Karen, small town living is great! Our town is around 15,000 people, not quite as small as yours.
I love being able to walk downtown and everything I need is right there.
Have a good weekend!

I grew up in a small town and loved it. Large towns and especially cities with lots of traffic make me feel frantic! Have a blessed weekend.

We do have one traffic light, but i like the fact that you know the hardware clerks, the bank tellers, cashiers at the grocery store, all by name.

No traffic lights? Wow! I've never lived in a town with no traffic lights. It's great that you know people by name - and that they know you!
