Where is that groundhog fellow. We need to talk. It is about 30 degrees with 40 to 50mph winds today in the triangle. I am pretty sure I just saw a pine tree go flying by my office window. Thats okay, I dont like my neighbor that much anyway. Just kidding Jim. I actually like them alot. They are kinda new to the hood. Only been there 39 years so I dont want to upset them. At least they're not rookies like my neighbor on the other corner. They just got settled in 20 years ago. I think they were worried about the neighborhood getting old in the tooth so they just had another baby. Brings the average down. Oh yea, did I mention we can walk to a terrific park right in our neighborhood. My stepkids helped paint the blue bird houses the town just installed. My neighbor down the street is a sculptor and she took it upon herself to paint one of the big rocks in the park. The town liked it so much they asked her to do several more. I live in one of those places that have intrinsic value. Our homes arent 4000 square feet but the lots are large and wooded and we can walk to the greenway in 2 minutes. We can be in downtown Raleigh in ten minutes. I ride my scooter there all the time. We have artists, writers, engineers, organic gardeners, college professors and just plain folk like me. Its a pretty cool place to live and I dont care how hard the wind blows. I aint budgin. A good home is not about the size of the rooms or the latest gadgetry but more about how you feel when you are there. I feel goooooooood!

Tim, Great post!  Would love to visit your neck of the woods.  I love it when folks love where they are and let others know.
