Aww, I'd love to meet her. I wonder just how much that free garbage pick-up and cable has been worth now after all of these years. Our next door neighbor was telling us about the days before the Spanish Springs Town Square was built. Everyone met in a blue and white tent somewhere over near the Post Office, Mexican restaurant and the crematory. Gosh, I love this place more and more everyday.
