Rural Advantages make a comeback

Thanks to Mike Knutson, I found the Reasons Rural Rocks series at Podcasting through the Prairies.

Things we know, but take for granted, like:
8. Going to your neighbors' and surprising them for coffee and it isn't considered breaking in @return2rural

7. Open starry skies, flowers on dirt roads, fragrant fresh air, abundance of wildlife, commUNITY, escape... @dizzyraerae

6. Family-run restaurants that still serve REAL, fresh, home-cooked food. @ACSRC

Stop by and read the Top 10, then add your own ideas on Twitter, with the hashtag #ReasonsRuralRocks.

We started a Rural Advantages series in 2007:
  1. No 'rush hour'; only 'rush moment'
  2. Random encounters are good for business
  3. People are helpful
  4. No need for GPS Navigation
  5. A smaller, better network
  6. Trust
Maybe it's time to bring it back.
