small town time, anywhere

want to feel like you live in a small town even if you don't?  here's my top 20:

do errands in a different city and store
visit your own chamber of commerce
drive an unfamiliar route
check out magazines from the library
build in time to visit in the store
read books to kids
listen to an older person's story
wander world market aisles
cook an ethnic dish
visit on a front or back porch
feed the birds
write old fashioned letters
figure out and take care of that nagging thing
start something from seed
try a new walk/run/bike path
pack a picnic for one and eat in a local green space
compliment a store/business you frequent
leave a wildflower boquet anonymously
do a tools or services swap
carpool or take public transportation
