What a difference!
A little over 2 years ago I moved to PA from beautiful, sunny FL. The purpose of this move, of course, was to be closer to the family. I figured the transition would be a little difficult, the weather being the hardest change to get used to. Boy was I wrong! Now, my fellow PA dwellers, please don't get offended but, the people in the state of PA are miserable, mean people. I don't know if it is just because I've grew up in an extremely friendly, open environment, but I can't get over it. It's like these people have forgotten how to associate with other people. When someone says hello to me (even if I don't know them) I say hello back. Common courtesy, right? People up here act as if saying hello to someone or even just a small smile of acknowledgment is too hard to do. I know its cold, I know it's wet, and I know I want to be back in FL, but come on people - BE NICE! That hello or smile could be the only good thing that happens to someone that day. Ok, done ranting now. Who knows, perhaps someone will read this and it will make a difference. If not, I still got it off my chest :)

Nicole, I bet it makes a difference to them that you smile and say hello, even if they don't acknowledge it. Keep it up!
