I have new neighbors moving in next door, so I went over and introduced myself and welcomed them to the neighborhood. They were pleasantly surprised and told me this was the first time they've lived someplace where a neighbor said "hi." Go meet your neighbors, people. Be part of your community!

@jgamet@mastodon.social We just got new neighbors as well. We were walking the dogs back to the house when they pulled up in the U-Haul and their car. We stopped. Mimed that there is our house. They smiled, rolled down their windows, and now we all know each other by name. We do “neighborly” right in Colorado!

@jgamet@mastodon.social It doesn’t happen often enough! Why wouldn’t you get to know them? It is such a nicer world when you can wave hello and goodbye, and converse about local matters, etc.
