- Dickey's BBQ! Pulled pork. Lean smoked Ham. Fried okra. Pecan pie. Need I say more!
- Genuinely friendly people! Our neighbors brought over homemade chocolate chip cookies!
- Huge house with fenced backyard and two-car garage--and we can still eat and put a little in savings, too. Seattle is so yesterday.
- SuperTarget, Home Depot, Best Buy, and two grocery stores are within five minutes in every direction. (Well, maybe 10 minutes.)
- Chick-Fil-A (I'm having some waffle fries for you, Shannon!)
- BIG sky!
- We're in the Central Time Zone so I can watch Dave Letterman and still get a decent night's sleep! (And now that we have Tivo, it just got easier!)
- The Southern Drawl . . . it's music to my ears!
- God isn't a dirty word.
- There are more churches than cows here . . .
Surely I will find a church that loves people and has a minister who preaches soul-inspiring, intellectually challenging, well-organized sermons--Yea!
I also hear that it gets hot down here (repeated conversation: "We just moved here." "How do you like it?" "We like it a lot!" "Wait til the summer."). However, since we moved here in mid-December, we have had two ice storms and seven days of sun. In between it has been cold, cloudy and often rainy.
Maybe Seattle isn't as yesterday as I had hoped . . .
