[...] you're in the MIDDLE of nowhere!
I grew up in rural areas only 30 minutes from large cities. When I bought my own home, all I could afford was in the City. An unforeseen perk was that EVERYONE would drop in unannounced for coffee & catch up visit because they were "in my neighborhood".
I love that & it still happens occasionally. Some relatives were in town for Thanksgiving & stopped in last Sunday-I was in the middle of working & covered in sawdust but so delighted to see them!
I have been told that the middle of nowhere is down the road and to the left. We are upwind and a bit to the west of there.
Sorry ladies, but I beg to differ here. Neither of you are even close to identifying where "the middle of nowhere" is.
Ya see, I KNOW where that is. It's where the little unincorporated town consisting of one RV park, one gas station, one church, and one antique store, is located.
It's named "Hope, Arizona" and it sits in the northwestern section of the Sonoran Desert...the only place on earth where the iconic Saguaro cactus grow.
And as one drives through it along AZ Hwy-60, they'll see this sign telling them that they're now exiting what little there is of it...
(...oh, and if you might be wondering, no, there are no "springs" anywhere near it.."eternal" or NOT!...get IT?!.."Hope springs eternal"?!!!...sorry, couldn't resist...oh, and if you might NOW be wondering, nope, I had nothing at all to do with that sign up there!!!) LOL
