"No Man is an Island"

Well no man is an island, how true can this be. We are not made to live a life isolated and shielded from the real world and companionship/relationship is woven into the fabric of people. This is exactly why I live in Pendleton Heights (we in the neighborhood call it PH). If you want to wake up, get in your car in the garage, go to work, come home park in the garage, and go to sleep with little more than water cooler discussion at work for relationships, then PH might not be the place for you. But if you crave to know your neighbors and want to live in real community this is the place. Why, might you ask...I will give you examples... Need a tool to work on your house but don't have it, a few phones call and you are sure to lay your hand on what you need, no rentals, no need to buy a tool for one job. Wonder what your neighbors are doing...go sit on your front porch (a big thing in PH) with a glass of wine and you will soon find yourself in a conversation with one if not a couple of them. I love PH and not because I live here but because I see how this neighborhood has come together and believes in the people that are here. That is what make PH great...not the houses but the people!
