For those of you who aren't aware of all the attractive offerings of our beloved B-squared, here's a partial list in reverse order of importance:
#10) Nice people. Our garage door has been torn off for over a month, and no one has stolen a single item.
#9) Open spaces. If you like the outdoors, and you don't mind frequent gale force winds and an occasional waft of cattle manure, then you'll love walking or biking on rural roads through rolling plains.
#8) Local produce. Talk about a green-minded people, BB has a nice farmers market throughout the summer. You can even buy local, grass-fed Bison there.
#7) Friendly neighbors. Ours have come through yet again in the doggie daycare department while we're vacationing in AZ.
#6) Very nice doggies live there (yes, I mean ours)
#5) No traffic. You know you're getting spoiled when sitting at the intersection for 30 seconds while waiting to cross the highway causes you to throw your hands up in frustration.
#4) Home cooking. Sort of a necessity rather than a bonus given the dining options are few, but hey, it's still good.
#3) Excellent health care from very qualified professionals.
#2) Housing prices: You can afford a veritable mansion here for the cost of a down payment many other places in the U.S.. The median home price in BB is $57,800.
#1) Keith and Shaleah live there, and if they aren't enough, they now have a big TV.
So, if it hadn't already occurred to you, give it some thought. Broken Bow, "In the middle of everywhere!"

I think the last two posts would cement your candidacy as a marketing director for any city in the country. You managed to make a place lots of people think is fantastic sound horrible and you made a small Nebraska town sound like an idyll of pleasantness and repose. Consequently, I pretty much agree with your takes on both places. I much enjoyed the link to the "mayor" of Scottsdale Fashion Square. The fact that a mall has a "mayor" is making me question whether the human race is worth keeping.
Intrigued by the glowing review, I visited the Broken Bow Chamber of Commerce's Web site.
It made me giggle a little bit.
I never rule out any adventure ... as long as UPS and FedEx can ship some Scottsdale-style consumer goods to me and I can wear heels occasionally (the streets are paved, right?) it sounds like a liveable place.
We can get bicycles and harass the locals with their big TV!
I love the ten reasons to go to B squared! I hope that AZ is treating you both well. Shirley
