I love small towns. I was raised in a small town in rural Oregon, where the population was 500 – including pets and livestock that meandered through. A river went by the town, and most of the people were friendly and knew each other. It was ideal until I moved to a large city,
When I was in grade school, we moved to the big city of Portland. Had to walk to school… three miles, uphill, both ways.
Now I live in 7th largest US city in Texas. You can take the girl out of a small town but not take the small town out of the girl.
