My Town-The Main Four (maybe more) is this weeks topic
for the Friday Shoot Out.
My town is not a town~ it's just a spot on the map.
Not much here at this crossroad some may say.
But our crossroad has a stoplight.
Lots of waving and horn blowing goes on at this light!
Our way of saying "Howdy Neighbor" since most of us
are our own neighborhood.
Our trusty post office.
Plenty of talking, socializing and just plain old catching up
at this happening place.
We have a library.
And there is a small car dealership up on the hill.
This is the church I attend.
This is the church I attend.
St Stephens Baptist Church
Built in 1842
See the stain glass above the doors?

Hand crafted by my father in law, Mr. T
(God rest his soul)
We have plenty of this.
And this too.
I love my town. It's in God's County.
A great place to be on this Good Friday!

God's Country, indeed. Wonderful;) Happy Easter weekend to you all....
Looks like a wonderful town!! A place where your kids can't get away with anything because everyone knows them, haha!
I love small towns...
Happy Easter!
I think I need to be there. Now.
I do love small towns..........not enough to ever live in one again .......but its a nice place to visit.
Aww..I think your town must be a smidge bigger than my town though. We don't have a stoplight in the entire county!
Gotta love the open skies and open country!
Lovely! You are making me homesick!
I LOVE our little "spot on the map"!!! Wouldn't want to live anywhere else:)
A beautiful non-town. I find small towns fascinating.
Pretty town. I grew up in a small town where we were surrounded by woods. I loved it. Now it has grown a bit, but not too much.
I love small towns until I need something that's 100 miles away. How nice that your father-in-law, Mr. T made that stained glass window above the doors.
Mr. T is your FIL???
Beautiful!
I can see I will enjoy your blog a lot.... a shot of humor a day keeps the doctor away.
hello from Brasil
We used to live in a town like that in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. We didn't even have a traffic light.
We used to tell people go to Upper Michigan and get really lost and you will be there.
Loved the pictures of your little town.
we don't even have a stoplight!! :)
You have a stop light? Most spots on the map only have stop signs.
Good on ya!
Love it honeychild.....just love your snaps. Noe Noe, I am so pleased that you joined our gang. That's right, you read it here first folks, we've got a GANG (gasp).
What should our colors be Noe Noe and shall we wear Chiffon and throw "gang signs" at passing cars?
I love the wide open space shots and the sky......glorious and unending beauty abounds in your town. Thanks for the tour :)
By the way, when someone is blowing their horn at me they are usually shouting "Hey lady, get outta the road......you're drunk again". Ugh...whatever. People are so pushy sometimes aren't they?
Next week's subject is listed on my today's post.
Please have a blessed Easter and....
Steady On

It is lovely. I love small towns (grew up in one) and wish I were raising my kids in a small town. *sigh* I have to live with my husband though :)
Have a beautiful Easter Sunday my friend.
Awww, I pass through there every weekend in the summer and fall going to the "rivah"...love it!
Sorry I've abandoned blogging for awhile...work,classes,kids,and well, just life in general has gotten in the way ;o) Hopefully I'll have more time in the summer! But who am I kidding?
I just found your town shoot out listed at another side. Gosh, we have to find a better way to let people know who is participating. Reggie Girl and I started this but is has grown so much it is hard to keep up with.
Anyway, thanks for joining our town shoot outs. Guess you know the subject next week is local foods, restaurants, bars, etc.
I liked the way you improvised ( we all have done that, and it is fun sometimes -makes us think). Your text was nice. It is always nice to be able able to visit another place through the eyes of the people who live there.
You did a great job. Welcome aboard. I will add you to my list to make sure everyone can find you next week.
Darling.....you're already added to 2 blog roll lists of known "shooter"s.......so no worries there. GingerV and Papa has you listed. All anyone has to do is put it in the post title to be seen on the dashboard and voila!! We can all have a little look see :)
You are a joy Noe Noe!!
Steady On

Noe Noe, your wide open spaces rejuvinate me. We all should be so lucky. Thanks for being a part of our Shoot-out gang. I enjoy brousing all of your blog. Walk By Faith! Gordon
I like how open and uncrowded your town is. Mine is a crazy suburb and sometimes feels too crowded.
That was a lovely tour.
I love those shots! That reminds me very much of my hometown, Decatur, Texas. Just a spot in the road, or at least it USED to be. Not so much anymore.
This is so beautiful! I love your town! Oh yes I do! I love your church. I love God that created this wonderful world we live in!
I love Our Town too....and I am SO glad we finally got that stoplight...too many bad accidents before that came our way. And now that we have a Food Lion? Yay! No more 20 minute drives just to get groceries!!!
LOVE it!!!
There is nothing better than a small town!
