Think of this as a virtual back yard, or maybe an electronic bus stop. It's a place where people share experiences, discoveries, talents and knowledge; where newcomers can ask old-timers. This site is free, independent and non-commercial. We have information, opinions, recommendations and fun. This is the place to tell your neighbors about a great restaurant you found, or a route to avoid traffic on the way to the beach. Or ask your neighbors to recommend a plumber or an orthodontist or a barbecue sauce or a computer fixer. Swap some skis for tires. Recommend a website, a book or a movie. Offer to baby-sit or try to find a babysitter, or a house cleaner. Arrange play dates for your kids, or car pools to work. Check back often to see how we evolve and to hear what your neighbors are saying; and please tell new neighbors about the site.   Michael N.
