Wave Your Hands In The Air...or not.

So we've been here for almost two weeks now and we're all adjusting pretty well. The hardest part I think has been being so far away from everything. If we need to go to Wal-mart, it's a 15-20 minute drive. I'm used to it being 5 minutes. So much for having patience.

It's also been strange getting used to a rural community as opposed to a bigger town. Don't get me wrong, the people have been wonderful so far. However, they are not very expressive in the least. There is a deep faith among the folks at my church, but they don't outwardly express it when they are worshipping. I'm used to being more expressive, but that's just me.

I've read this post a few times now and the one thing that keeps sticking with me is:

Wow you must really be in the boonies if you can consider Hastings to be a "big" town.

I feel for you my friend. I have become addicted to the city. I could not do the rural thing very easily.
