“I love being able to walk down the street and smile, stop, have a conservation, wave, etc. and know the people on the street with me. To go into the coffee shop and order "my regular" and Sherri knows what I want…to not have to order when I go to the deli for breakfast because they know me. To have choices for shopping…it's a small town but there are two coffee shops, multiple bars and eating locations, and specialty shops.”
