Rural ~ Home

As I have frequently shared, we live in rural America. We are surrounded by fields, dairies, alfalfa fields, and a few people. There are only about 3500 people in our county. I like the quiet, country life. No malls, only a couple of diners, a couple of gas stations and a couple of grocery stores. We do have a McDonald's and a 7-11, but that is about it as far as national chains go. It is nice, you know your neighbors and you look out for each other. It is a nice place to raise children, and even nicer when they come home for a visit. It is hot dogs on Easter weekend, parade and derby on the 4th of July. It is true Americana at it's finest. Welcome to Rural America.






And the one I chose for the rural challenge...  I call "Born Today".
