You do have such beautiful Fall colors up there! And you live on such a nice looking road ...
yes I love my road, you can walk up and down and hardly see any cars, you get caught up in a lot of conversations though with neighbors
How delightful. Around here nobody talks to anybody.
Kris is also related to about half the people that live on her block lol...it is a nice street where folks watch out for each others' kids and it has a real sense of community.
Priscilla, don't feel bad...I mainly talk to critters over here.
Hey P, I wonder what they would think if you just started talking to every body??
Sometimes when you are in a hurry the talking isn't as nice!
Unfortunately, in my area, it's best to NOT try to speak to the neighbors. I can occasionally talk, briefly, with the woman across the road from me if no one else is around. Otherwise, the best communication is just a wave from the car's driver as they pass by .... I wouldn't know how to deal with it if everyone was warm and friendly .... At least I get a wave now - I've waved enough over the years that finally the neighbors have started waving back.
I found the same behavior while living out on the Bolivar Peninsula in TX. If I had had family in the area and/or kids in the local school and/or a husband from the local area, I would have been accepted a lot more easily. As it was, it was assumed that I was a school teacher over in Galveston and otherwise not worth the trouble .... good thing that peer group/neighborhood acceptance wasn't the highest priority for me ...
All though, it would be nice to occasionally "gab" with the neighbors. I guess this is one of the reasons I enjoy the blog "e-neighborhood" as much as I do.
