We live in a very small town similar to yours...though we do have ONE stop light! =) Country living is well worth being far from 'town'. Our WalMart is only 15 miles away so I guess it's safe to say you are in the 'sticks' farther out than we are. LOL Love that you are happy there. Community is SO important....and it's definitely a great place to raise your family.

My husband and my mother are from towns just like yours. My two step-sons grew up in a one horse town as well. I did not and always thought it must be awful to not have Walmart or movie theaters in town and everyone knows your business. But as I've gotten older and gained wisdom I have found that 4-H is a terrific way to help kids learn responsibility and while everone is nosy - they are also fiercely loyal and the entire town comes together to celebrate a wedding and to mourn a death. As my husband and I sit in the 3rd largest city in the state in a home we've lived in for 10 years where we only know SOME of our neighbor's first names and certainly do not have ANY kind of conversations with them - I am t hinking you are one of those lucky people who has less fear and more comfort than the rest of us.
