You are welcome to share in our nice weather. We actually have the air conditioning on since it was upwards to 90 degrees outside today and expecting the same for the next 2 days.

We are very much enjoying country living. Rick has been working on getting his model airplane runway ready to plant the grass seed. He's been putt putting around on his little tractor with the scraper blade and the rotortiller for days now

One of his buddies flew his small airplane here tonight just off of the existing grass. Was nice to see them having fun with their toys.

The only drawback to country living is when you need to go to town for "stuff". It ends up taking 1/2 the day all the time. But, still, a small price to pay for the relative peace and quiet of country living...... if you don't factor in all the tractors running around at the moment LOL.

I guess you have to plan to make a list and get everything done at once. We are in a small city ( a very small city) so most everything is always available to us. I love the convenience, but both DH and I grew up in the country and there are parts of that I really and truly miss!

Even with the 30 min. drive to/from Binghamton, I wouldn't trade my country living for nothin!

When I am in the city to shop all I keep thinking is soon I'll be heading home and away from all these people, cars and craziness!

Robin,
I think it's so cool that Rick can now play in is own back yard...No getting everything packed up...just get out there and have a good time!

Good news is that our city is so much smaller than Bingamton! Behind our house is a wooded lot that is backed by an elementary school, and is owned by the school district, so it won't be developed. The neighbors houses are closer than I'd like, but, luckily, we have wonderful neighbors!

Also the country is no more than 5 minutes away! This morning my DD and I spent 2 1/2 hours kayaking at a Lake in the middle of the woods. No more than a 10 minute drive!

Helllllooooooo TKers!!

Cruisin · 05-20-2012, 10:19 PM

Sounds like we have a bunch of country lovers here

I do really enjoy it too. No one looking over at you whenever you go outside to do something. I could walk around naked outside half the time and no one would even notice

Not something I'm inclined to do of course.... just saying

Hey Kim! How's it going in Chicago. I was in your neighbourhood last weekend. I gave you a shout out on my way by. I recognized the name of Touhy Avenue when we went zipping by it.

We had a beautiful day here today. The weather was superb. Got together with some friends for a bbq tonight. Tomorrow we are going to visit Liz and her boyfriend John. Today was Liz's birthday and tomorrow is John's birthday........ 2 for the price of one

WHY didn't you call me?!?! Even for a few minutes, if you were in a hurry!

Sorry we missed you.

I'm sorry that I didn't get the chance to call you Kim but it was due to my own stupidity........ I forgot to bring phone numbers with me

We went north of you, almost to Wisconsin.
