Shhhh

Here is a picture of the quietest street in America. It is taken from in front of our house (our front lawn is on your left). We have been here nine days. And have literally seen four neighbors outside. Literally. Hours go by without any cars passing. What a crazy feeling after living in student housing for four years.

Finally on Friday, we met the neighbors across the street and the woman that lives next door to them. They were oh so nice. (They haven't come out again, but did I mention they were nice?) I honestly had started to think that the homes on our street were only for decoration. That people didn't actually live in them. Now I know they live in them, but I'm not sure they leave them.

We went on a walk after dinner tonight. It was quiet, quiet, quiet. We are really hoping it is because school does not start until Thursday and people are still on vacation. If not, we are in for a silent year. But hey, my personality is so calm and quiet that I'll fit right in. Just the neighborhood for me. A self-proclaimed wall flower. Just be sure that when you come to visit, you bring your inside voice.

Thanks. I appreciate it.
