Neighbors

I really like my neighborhood. We have the best neighbors in our area of the development. I live at the bottom of a loop in the development, and we have neighbors on either side and across the street. Everyone just takes care of one another. We literally share anything needed. My wife pings the neighbors when we run out of something, like the other night we needed brown sugar for some cookies, and sure enough a neighbor had some. Then we buy some more and give it back. We all do it and help each other. This is something I never experienced living in NJ. I lived in the same apartment for five years and never even learned my neighbors names. We would say hi and be nice, but that is about it. This is my I like it down here. My one neighbor even lets me borrow his truck when I need to get something big from Lowes. Great neighbors. I am blessed.
