Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood


This is our street. I love this time of year when the trees form an umbrella of sorts over our roads. We call our part of town "Mayberry" because everyone is always out in their yards, on their front porches, or walking kids and dogs.
"Hello!...how 'ya doin?...what kind of dog is that? where's the baby today?"
And if I travel a 1/2 mile north, I get to see this...
This house takes up a city block...it can't even fit in one photo!

Ohhh, I love this one....
And while our neighbors in this part of town are wonderful, I usually see more service personnel than homeowners.

Up on the hill is this beauty...


And it's handsome neighbor, here.
I love these beautiful homes, but it's always good to drive back down our Mayberry alleys, park in our one-car detached garage, and put my key in the back door.
It's a beautiful day all over the neighborhood.

Wow, it really is a beautiful day in the neighborhood! If I had houses like that nearby, I think I'd go out walking a lot more. :-)

I always wanted to live in Mayberry! -Julia

I used to start many a day in the classroom by saying to my students, jokingly, that "I want to be your neighbor" as I took off sweater and boots and placed them in coloset....
They always got a kick out of it...
