Neighborhood Picnic

Posted by conradfamily on December 21, 2009

Ours is an older neighborhood in Sacramento.  Quiet, tree lined streets without sidewalks or street lights.  Most houses have 1/2 to 1 acre of property.  Every year we have an annual community yard sale that is followed by a neighborhood picnic.  Doug and I hosted the picnic in our backyard. Our neighborhood association provided the meat that Doug barbequed as well as the entertainment.  Over 40 neighbors, young and old, came and had a great time.  It was good to hear the stories of some of the long time residents and to see the children hit it off so well.  In the hectic pace of today’s society, it’s good to spend time getting to know your neighbors.
