Why I love living in New Freedom

1. The closest traffic light is a little over seven minutes away.
2. You don't have to take a drive into the "country" to see the beautiful foliage because you're already there.
3. A tasty Italian meal at the local Ma and Pa restaurant costs less than $9.00, and that's with a side salad and enough left overs for at least one more meal.
4. Our local bagel shop has FOUR different sugar-free syrup flavors for my lattes. Versus the TWO that Starbuck's has.

Why I REALLY LOVE Shrewsbury

1. A trip to Wal-Mart means I can get my oil changed, drop off my prescriptions, buy the toiletries I've been desperately needing, AND get my grocery shopping accomplished. All while laughing at the plethora of red necks who frequent Super Wal-Mart because it is the one and only place to be!

AND....

2. Fashion Bug is still in existence, and widely shopped by those very same red necks.

Why do you love your neighborhood and surrounding areas?!

Ya, Lib. I have heard some others with that problem. I think it might be the browser that you are looking at it with. ??

Good question! I love that there's a Target on both sides of town so I don't have to go to Walmart.;) I love being five minutes from the library, grocery stores, post office, gas stations, many friends, and Dunkin' Donuts for coffee. I also love the 200 foot trees that form a natural tapestry between me and the neighbors who live behind our woods. Church is only 18 minutes in one direction, my parents 18 in the other.

I love feeling tucked away, yet so close to many conveniences. I love being 5 minutes from Wal-mart (Mrs. Beth changed my mom into a walmart hater, but I stand firm as a wal mart lover. :) As for our neighborhood- how green it is around here all spring and summer, the nice neighbors, and the stream.
