They and the schools are the backbones of our little towns. It is so hard for them to stay open - always good to see another one that is still making it.
I just need to add, that your pictures draw me in , makes me long to move to Michigan.... to have a 10 acre or so little spread .... room for the kids, dogs, a goat or two... :) Thank you for your words and pictures!
Ours has a bench out front that the "senior" gentlemen sit on, greet you, and swap stories. The sign painted on the bench? Liar's Bench. Cracks me up every time.
Zasra ~ thank you for the kind words. Northern Michigan is indeed beautiful, but there is beauty everywhere, in the smallest of settings. Good luck on your quest for a life one step closer to nature. :) (P.S. There is a lot of acreage for sale up here...:)

I would move to a small town in a second .... just need to convince my hubby .
Maybe our kids & dogs will convince them one of these days... it is important to have dreams , right? :)

I, too, love to hear these small town stories. We have to hold on folks...and not let the ways of the past slip away.
