Although the boxes are not unpacked, and shelves are not mounted to the wall, and there is much to sort through and decide what to do with..we are here and together as a family.
From what we have seen of York so far, it is a wonderful cross of rural and city life. We are in the middle of farm county and even have a farmer's market within walking distance of us (as we walk past several farms plowing and horses grazing). There are quaint looking country and antique shops only a short drive away. The kids have already met friends and wandered off to pick and collect the fragrant honeysuckle that grows around our townhouse community. The closest grocery (other than the farmer's market) is a Giant and is about 20 - 30 minutes away.
With all of that, we are only one hour away from several major cities. And two hours from a few more. I think living here will be the best of both worlds for us.
I have not met any homeschoolers yet and am anxious to do so. The neighborhood is filled with children running everywhere yet it seems that they all attend the local schools. It will be nice to again connect with people in this new area. |
