I whole heartedly agree that the sense of community is in tough shape out here in the rural areas. Could rant a long time about that! But at the same time I see folks that are wanting to get back to the way it was as far as the "old" country community. Just had a very uplifting experience yesterday, might have to somehow work that into a blog :) Tom James,

I may have looked at one of those foxfire books years back. Anyone who has lived in the city and longed to get out can relate to it. I think the sense of community is in tough shape in the rural parts as well, although we've got some good neighbors who have offered to help us in many practical ways. We also have a neighbor who lives in the city and comes out on the weekends; that one is proving to be a pain already. We still have a long way to go to become members of our community, though.
