Wonderful day in the neighborhood

There is a distinct difference in the feel of the neighborhood when one is around Monday through Friday during the day. Usually I only see it on weekends and weeknights. There are a few folks who are "retired" and seem to have the nicest lawns and shrubs. They usually have little designs on their mailboxes so I guess I now fall into that category - I better get to Home Depot. There is the occasional dog walker, town maintenance truck and of course the day's highlight - the mailman.

This is a rather rural area with minimal traffic, so a car going down the street is worth watching. I've actually started to notice the different engine sounds so I can guess with bizarre accuracy which vehicle it is before it passes my window. This has not impressed my wife - so far. Ha, if she only knew this was the germ of an idea for a game show.
