-People here tend to either drive like their hair is on fire or they are going so slow you pull out your own hair.
-Hardly anyone uses their turn signals!
-Just one more thing about driving here... my heart smiles when I see either one of the two vehicles I have spotted regularly with Hawkeye license plate holders!
-Red clay soil shows up well on our carpeting.
-I wonder how hard it is to get plants to grow in this type of soil.
-We keep saying we need to get around to installing a fence for the yard... but have yet to do it.
-We have only met one neighbor in the 11 weeks we have lived here.
-No one goes outside here unless it is close to 60 degrees out, I am convinced.
-I love the weather here.
-Our church is a lot like our old one... 10 years ago. Exciting times to come, I hope!
-The women I met at a church game night were very friendly!
-I can't wait to go on a scrapbooking retreat with these women! (Coming up in March!)
-We are getting used to the Louisville/Kentucky rivalry. We are claiming allegiance to Louisville.
-I am still a true Hawkeye! And I will always root for Michigan State, Illinois, Duke and Iowa State above Louisville.
-Derek likes his job a lot. I am so glad for that!
-Lots of people seem to have dogs here.
-There is a place here called "The Pie Kitchen" and it is awesome!
-I have yet to see an Asian or Mexican grocery store here. :-(
-It took us 10 weeks (and the fact that our car was being worked on and we had no place else to go) for us to discover one of the malls here... and I am not that anxious to have to go back. But that is probably just something about my personality. The mall was fine for a mall, I guess.
-Trader Joes is too far away. :-(
-Papa Johns Pizza tastes even better here!
-I am anxious for a day to go visit IKEA in Cincinnatti! It is only an hour and a half or so away!
That's about it for now. Hope you are having a great day!
