Nice message here. I grew up in Chicago, but I've learned to love small town living. Altho, our town keeps growing all the time, but it still has that small town atmosphere.

Sometimes I miss living in Dallas, especially when we want to eat out. When I compare traffic gridlock to waiting for 3 cars to pass before I can turn left, I find I enjoy the slower pace of a small town. Thanks for the comment. BJ

Wonderful story. I could close my eyes and be taken right to this small town!

Hi B.J.,
I grew up in a small town, though actually quite large compared to where you now reside. But reading about your Saturday nights was absolutely delightful! I promptly sent an e-mail to my sister Susan to prompt her to read it, too. It's so nice to do simple things and find true pleasure in them; isn't it?
Have another wonderful Saturday night tonight,
Sandi in FL.
