A week ago, fairly early in the morning, I was sitting outside in the garden, and a street over I heard, “Mornin Neighbor!” Although I don’t know who they were greeting, I’m guessing I know who the greeter was. It was a pleasant “over-hearing” and it made me think – Over the years here we have enjoyed many days of sitting on the patio and having neighbors come over – to see the garden, or just to chat, just as we have enjoyed walking our dogs and stopping by to talk.
We are also coming up on the time of year where we literally “give” some of our garden to neighbors. It’s so cool to have neighbors tell us in the spring to come and see how well something we gave them is doing! It’s different from the neighborhood we raised our kids in, but just as fun, and just as social.
It was a perfect morning that day I heard the “Mornin’ Neighbor!” greeting and a nice reminder that almost 16 years later we’ve made a lot of memories here, and friends and neighbors.
