De Perks of living in De Queen

Number of people in line in front of me to vote today: 0
Time spent waiting in line at post office: 30 seconds
Time it takes to walk to post office: 3 minutes
Time waiting in line at revenue office: 1 minute
Jason's commute to work: 3 minutes
Nearest lake: 10 minutes
Number of blocks away our house is from church: 3
Number of taco stands within walking distance: 4
Number of Mexican grocery stores within walking distance: 2


I am continually amazed at the amount of time we save here! Small towns definitely have their perks. We are so thankful to not be stuck in traffic for an hour, or to wait in line anywhere for more than 5 minutes. We have so much more time to do things that are important! We invite all of our big-city friends to consider moving here, where you will find a simplified yet powerful lifestyle. I have not had a boring day since we moved here. If you'd like to know what that means, just ask us. :-)

    if we all move there, it wouldn't be a small town anymore.

    i just have one question though:
    do you wave at every person/car you pass? drew still does this in the big city and not only does it embarrass me, i think it weirds these city folks like myself out. they just stare at hime... LOL

    you know, that's what I'm here for. you are crossing over to the "wave at every person" dark side... LOL
