What's the best thing about where you live?

Misconception
Most people who don't live in New York state have a false conception of what it is like where I live. Many people think of the entire state as being just New York City. When you say you are from Florida, from Utah, or any other state, people ask wher in Florida, or where in Utah, ect. When I say I am from New York, they don't ask where in NY. Instead I hear things like "I've been there", or "wow, I'd like to go to New York someday". I have actually never been to New York City (NYC) in my life. It would be a 6 hour drive from my house. Most people where I live are so used to country living and driving that they fear going to NYC and getting lost or just driving in such heavey traffic that they have no experience of. That's why I have never been there. I want to go there someday, but will take a tour bus when I go. This way I won't have to drive in the heavy traffic or worry about getting lost, hahaha.

My real home, is so far out in the country, the nearest city is a one hour drive. I live on a property that is more than 100 acres of land. People drive all the way out here to get away from the business of the city and relax. I can go hiking, fishing, camping, or hunting and never leave my own back yard.

I have well water because you can't get town water where I live. I have bottled propane delivered to have gas to cook with because you can't get natural gas at my house. I have dial up internet service because you can't get high speed internet where I live. To get high speed interent, you must have acess to cable and you can't get cable TV here either.

My town is so small, we don't have a school or a post office. We get our mail from a neighboring town and share their zip cope. My children go to school in another neighboring town and have a one hour ride on the school bus. Our town is mostly houses and farm land. We do have a fire house with 3 fire trucks. We also have a church with about 30 people who attend. There is a small cemetary and a country corner store where you can still buy penny candy. That's about it. If you've seen these places, then you've toured my whole town. After you've seen it all, just sit back, relax, and enjoy the scenery. That's what my home is all about.
