I’m still interested in building community around my hood, but I’m taking it off as an active goal for now. I’ve made a point of introducing myself to every regular neighbor face I’ve seen around my place. I now know all my direct neighbors and it’s made for pleasant interactions when I’m out in the yard. Speaking of which, I really need to water my yard this week.
about 20 people came over my house last night. we met, we talked, and we drew a map of where averybody’s house was. it was a good first step. anyone else have ideas?
my first thought on how to do this is to have a small shindig and invite peeps that live within walking distance of each other. i’ve been meaning to do this for a while, but kept getting distracted. once the holidays are over i think i will have a small low-key event for the ~12 households that i am aware of near us.
