1) Yesterday I went for a walk alone (with my vicious protector dog) in the dark and felt perfectly safe. This is the prevailing atmosphere of Pullman, as long as you stay off College Hill.
2) We now have two really good restaurants. There are also a couple nice ones in Moscow that I would like to try but are a bit upscale. Dad, when were you coming to visit again?
3) Today, driving down the road, I passed one neighbor and a classmate or two, was directly behind my downstairs neighbor, and directly in front of a classmate who lives down the road. If I got in a car wreck and was unconscious, odds are someone passing by would be able to identify me.
4) You are never more than 5 minutes away from anything in town. Unless it is a game day, and then all bets are off.
5) There are a lot of parks to which one can walk one's labradoodle and illegally throw sticks for her.
6) People are friendly (again, stay off College Hill).
7) The best coffee shop in town also happens to allow dogs. They know a ripe demographic when they see one.
8) We have a lot of beautiful trees that turn colors, at least when there aren't 17 degree frosts in September that shock them to death first.
9) No one looks at you askance when you go to the grocery store covered in sheep grime. I think they are used to it at this point.
10) I like my house.
