I actually thinnk about this often but it seems like Ive just resigned myself to this is the way things are now. When I was a kid my neighbors had special treats for me on Halloween and all the kids hung out and we knew all the people on our blocks. Today even the area I grew up in is completely different and noone knows anyone. I try to say hello to my neighbors when I see them now but its very different. I always hoped when I got my own house I would have good neighbors that I would sit on the patio with and have a drink on a FRI night or just BBQ with after work but no luck so far. Everyone pretty much keeps to themselves. Oh well such is society these days I guess
