Our Neighorhood

I often wish to live out in the country again, but as far as neighborhoods go, we have a wonderfully diverse one. Today we walked down to the Sikh temple to watch the Sikh parade.

It was a beautiful summery morning; perfect weather for a parade. Einar and I were among the handful of caucasians there, but everyone was extremely friendly and those we spoke to were very willing to give us any information we asked for.

We already know we love Indian food, so it was an additional treat to be able to sample a variety of things we'd already tried, along with some that were new to us.

I love the colorful sari's and turbans and the richness that a diversity of cultures brings to a community. Just another reminder of why we live in this community.
