Like that here when I was growing up. Older people all knew who I was, and many I had never been introduced to....All changed now, lots of people from away and no one knows anyone anymore.
Been there, done that, wish I was still there and doing it.

Me too. I lived in a small town where kids could stay out late and not worry about anything happening. Where can you do that nowadays?
Still like that here in Royalton, Mn It's peaceful, I walk my dog at midnight when it's hot. U.S. 10 runs thru town but not much of an issue. People look out for each other and offer a helping hand, and don't and won't accept compensation. Reminds me of better times. Guess that's why I'm here.

If you need a reminder, go to Minneapolis.
No need, my mother lives in St Cloud, just 20 mins away, remember the mall stabbing last year?
How about the old cow pond in place of a backyard swimming pool? Nasty old yellow water, we still had fun.
I live in a small town in N,C, and we have cow ponds and slick rock creek. Cool water, cold beer, and alot of fun.
and you ain't bothered by the hectic big city rush
My wife hails from a small town in South Dakota. Many's the time when some stranger (usually a gal) will run up to her and say, "Aren't you (gives wife's first name and maiden one). Wife admits that's who she is but cannot place the stranger. Same says, "I'm so-and-so. I graduated with you from high school." Now, the old lady remembers (or at least says she does) but later confides to me, "I would never have recognized so-and-so. God, how she's changed!" I keep my mouth shut!
