City Living

I absolutely love where we live. We are an area of the city that has both family homes and apartments, but the apartments only have about 4 flats in each of them. Even though I don't talk to my neighbors in the other buildings, I love the community feel of living close to other people. Just tonight a man came out on his terrace and started playing his trumpet. Neighbors came to their windows or terraces to see what was going on and people walking on the street stopped to hear him play. Even though we never speak, it is fun to see the young blonde woman, the older married couple, or the young African guys all looking out with me at the same time to see what is going on in our neighborhood.
