2. What are the best things about your neighborhood?
"Maynard Oaks is exactly what neighborhoods used to be.  Kids can ride their bikes or go for walks without worrying for safety.  Neighbors look out for each other and help each other in a pinch.  Parents can frequently be seen chatting at the bus stop long after the buses have left.  There are often neighborhood activities in the Fall in Spring and even a neighborhood garage sale".

3. What are a few of your restaurants or shops?

5. What are your favorite things about your home?  The kitchen is my favorite room in the house.  Even if I'm not cooking, I can watch the kids playing in the back yard or the gazebo while I read or work.  All of our friends come in the side door through the kitchen, because they know that's where we'll be.  I also really enjoy our sun room, because it is the perfect spot to escape.  I can close both doors and just relax.  The gazebo is particularly convenient as well as pretty.  We can enjoy the outdoors, even on a rainy day!  It's great for getting fresh air first thing in the morning.
