Neighbors

It's kind of fun living in a house in a neighborhood.
There's grass right outside my door, for one thing, which is different than carpet and white walls.
And there are people mowing their lawns and playing outside with their children, which is also different.
And we have lots of windows to open and let the beautiful summer breeze in.
But there's something especially fun about living in a neighborhood: we have neighbors. One particular set of neighbors has been working on a project in their driveway for a while. I'm not sure what it is--it looks like a really awesome plywood fort to me, but why the grown men who live there would be building a fort is beyond me.
But whatever they're building, they're keeping themselves entertained with a steady flow of the Beatles, John Lennon, and Elton John.
And they have really great speakers. So it's kind of like having the radio on all the time, tuned to a station that I would probably never listen to.
I like it.
But then again, it's only been a day. I'll keep you posted as to whether I like my free radio subscription as the summer goes on.
