Wondering Wednesdays – Rural or City?

Posted by abakersp in Wondering Wednesdays / 3 Comments

Welcome to Wondering Wednesdays, a weekly post to learn more about me and other bloggers ðŸ™‚

Today’s questions is – Do you live in a rural or city setting?

I was born and raised a country girl, and that’s how it’s gonna stay! I grew up in a small community, with a creek/swimming area down the road, a back road to ride bikes on, and beautiful scenery all around. I still live in that town today, although it’s changed some.

Now I live on a busier road (wouldn’t bike on it), but my house is set way back from the road. I have a river just down the road from me, woods almost surrounding me, and even a swampy area down the other side of the road. There are fields used for hay, a rickety railroad track, and nature all around.

On any given day at my house you’ll see about 20+ different species of birds; deer; rabbits; squirrels (grey, red and flying); chipmunks; snakes (eeewwwwww); woodchucks; skunks; possum; bob cat; fox; coyotes (at night they have been seen crossing our yard to go into the woods); and even one time I saw a wolf! There is probably more out there that we haven’t seen as well. I know there’s been a bear spotted about 1/2 mile or so down the road, so I’m sure at some point he’s been to our place.

I honestly wouldn’t have it any other way. I wouldn’t even live in a village, let alone a city lol. I like having some acreage around my house, which is a nice buffer between us and the neighbors. I’ve even hung up laundry in my pjs before – don’t judge! Sure it’s a little bit of a drive to go anywhere to do something, but honestly I’m pretty content just hanging out at home.

What what about you? What setting do you live in?
