Pastoral Blog/Rural Living

I really like living in a rural community, especially O'Neill. I like that it is small enough for everyone to know each other, watching out for each other and protecting their friends and even acquaintances. However our town doesn't provide a whole lot of fun things to do. I think this is a huge reason why most people move away from small towns and to bigger cities. I plan to return to a rural area after graduating college, preferably a small town in the area I am in now. Like Ethan, I enjoy small town life and I'm sure I will enjoy it as an adult too.
