Why I Love Living In My Town
1. I can walk down the street and people smile and say, hello!
2. People care about each other.
3. Our town cares about how the Main Street area looks and keeps the gardens beautiful.
4. The local officials know you and smile when you pay your taxes, or register your car or register your dogs.
5. People know I breed dogs and are always happy to see me with a puppy or with Greta, and they always ask about how they are.
6. The area we live in is beautiful with many lakes and mountains. In fact we live very close to where “On Golden Pond” was filmed.
7. Our parks allow both kids and dogs to roam and run free.
8. We still have Halloween Parades, Thanksgiving meals and Christmas Parties for our kids.
9. We still have good old fashioned neighborhoods.
10. Many of us mentor the youngsters in our neighborhoods.
11. I love the way the town decorates for Christmas and the 4th of July and even Halloween!
12. I love the seasons here. All of them. Even the winter when it snows!
13. I love where I live because it’s where Hubby, Fritz, Greta, Arnie and Anneliese all live!
What gorgeous pictures, Mom, and such a nice view. I remember doing the hike of Rattlesnake when I when to school up north! Just beautiful!
Hope you have a great day!
Love,

Beautiful pics and sounds like a wonderful place!
Such a beautiful blog today Maribeth! There is alot to be said for living in a small town. I grew up in one and still go back to visit it often and have lifelong friends there. The only reason I stay in the city is to be near my children and grandchildren. So it sounds like you live in a little bit of paradise already.
Sounds like a great place to live – the picture is beautiful.
Sounds very nice and perfect for you! 🙂 I don’t know how you keep three dogs on the leash though – do they get tangled?
hubby looks like he’s going to jump! Don’t do it, hubby!
The little doggies look so big in these pictures!! How beautiful. I love where you live Maribeth
Dear Maribeth,
I remember on the time we visited the same place with you! It looks so funny how the doggies watch Jack and Fritzi.
Love Uschi
After having read all this I think I should better not go to Egypt but invade your place !! Seems to be a paradise !
Sounds like a place I need to visit! 🙂
