Small Town Life

It's official...we're small town people. It's amazing how quickly we became acclimated to our new environment.

This past week...
I didn't have to tell anyone we were buying a house because everyone I ran into already knew.

Without thinking, I waved to all oncoming traffic on my way to work.

I felt out of place at Wal-Mart because half of the people there were in overalls. (I continue to tell Aaron that I need a pair, but he just laughs at me.) 

I got stuck in "traffic" on my way to work...or (in other words) I got stuck behind a tractor on my way to work. 

I also came to realize that... 
My weekend excitement now involves a trip to a Wal-Mart where I will run into at least a dozen people I know.

My car stays filthy because of all the dirt roads, and there are about 1,234 bugs on my windshield. (By tomorrow I may reach 2,000.) 

It is normal to see an old man riding through town on his lawn mower...with a small trailer on the back.

And...the closest mall is an hour away. (sigh) 

O' the joys of small town life...
