One of the things I like best about our neighborhood is the variety of people around us. Still, I can't help but think it would be nice to be in a place where we didn't have a local garage band that only knows one song and only rehearses the chorus over and over playing til eleven once a week.Emhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07250084025459835860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585739827049021767.post-9447827086594877872009-10-10T11:41:07.241-07:002009-10-10T11:41:07.241-07:00Grilltech and I don't plan on moving any time ...Grilltech and I don't plan on moving any time soon.

Since we have no kids, we'd better look at adopting a young couple to help us stay in the house till we leave feet first.roxiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14916948065233137971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585739827049021767.post-34475768280659731822009-10-09T00:47:03.404-07:002009-10-09T00:47:03.404-07:00Mmm, that's pretty much the same reason I disl...Mmm, that's pretty much the same reason I dislike the "new developments" they're building around where I live.
