We have a post office, 2 gas stations with quickmart stores, a casino on one end and the high school on the other and only 3 streets in between. There aint much to do and I love reading about all your town does. I wish our little community was more like a real community but even in a town this small, it seems like everyone just wants to stay to themselves. We do have a loggers rodeo every June and the speedway sprint car races on Friday nights during spring-summer. But that's about it. Thanks for the peek into your town. It's a treasure!songbyrdonthemountainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15972167645190643502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6949315742598489928.post-34478539861988469562011-05-12T13:04:30.723-05:002011-05-12T13:04:30.723-05:00I admit--- I do not have much small town experienc...I admit--- I do not have much small town experience.<br /><br />But I love the sounds of everything you described... seems like the way you want to be raised. With traditions, and community.....<br /><br />My husband want to eventually live in a smaller town (of course that means just about anything when the smallest city I have ever lived in has over 4 million people)Alexis of NorthOnHarperhttp://northonharper.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6949315742598489928.post-28129918647221668922011-05-12T12:02:55.251-05:002011-05-12T12:02:55.251-05:00I grew up in a small northern Michigan town, and y...I grew up in a small northern Michigan town, and you can find a ton of people tubing the river for fun in the summer. Floating coolers and squirt guns are very necessary. (:<br /><br />There were typically festivals of some sort happening throughout the year, but one of my favorite things was always the chili cook off during Summer Fest. The food was usually pretty great, and I loved walking around to all of the booths and sampling the chili... yum!<br /><br />My younger self would never think she's hear her older self saying "I wish I was living in a small town again". There are so many things I miss about small town living. My husband and I are moving to FL soon and just might look for a small town to call home.<br /><br />I loved hearing about your small town festivals and fun!

There is a small town near my parents lake home and I like to go there for the small town feel- you can't fake it, it has to be a real small town farther away from the hustle and bustle and noise!Merihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08423593911232228585noreply@blogger.com
