I never have to run(or bike or rollerblade) up hills.
The low crime rate! Although that does translate to boring news paper articles.
Have you heard of "Minnesota Nice"? The same thing seems to apply here in ND. If you get stuck in a snow bank there will be at least 3 seperate people willing to help pull, dig, or push you out.
Sioux...I mean.. UND hockey is a celebrated event- even at work. Yes, I most definitely rocked a Sioux jersey with my dress pants and heels.
You can have the "Small town feel" and still live 4 minutes from a Target. FYI- I couldn't live somewhere without a Target or similar one stop shopping place ever again.
You can build a snow man at any age.
The community here really comes together and is supportive. You need help sand bagging your house? Done. Your school is holding a bake sale? I can make sugar cookies and my neighbor will donate a pie and her sister makes awesome banana bread. Your selling Pizza Corner to raise money for a class trip? Put me down for 2 cheese and a pepperoni. Your aunt is sick and you need help with the medical bills? Lets plan a silent auction, 5K, or dinner to help cover costs- you know everyone will show up.
Winter in April! Or maybe not. -.-
But in all seriousness- This place isn't so bad.
