Happy Things

These are happy things about the hood:

Home Tour, Porch Parties, Dog Day In Gidden's Park, The Ice Cream Social, Volunteers, my neighbors across the street, and down the street, and the next street over, and on every street to the end of the hood. Heck my neighbors in the next hood!

More Happy things:

The Hit Team, our newsletter, the Dog Park, our code officer, our TPD Major, Kash and Karry is gone, Sweetbay is here, Chili Cook off, Jazz at Sulpher Springs, Bluegrass in the park, a beautiful rehab.......................... Friends!

More anyone?

waving hi to my neighbors from my porch, being able to count on neighbors for assistance with almost anything, being close to town, my wonderful 1925 bungalow, lots of gay boys, fierce civic activism, Central Ave., Nicko's Diner, hot bread from Mauricio Faedo's bakery, the Sunshine Brass Band concert in Rivercrest Park, the dog park at Giddens and 12th, WMNF, Epps Park, Friday Night Whine and Dine, the trees, Hillsborough High School, SESH's Holiday Home Tour, 2 post offices, the diversity, Henry and Ola Park, on and on. Anyone have anthing else to add here?

I'm surprised no one has said "The Blog" yet. Personally, I love the fact that here, unlike many places, neighbors really are more then just the folks that live on either side of you. That and, to coin an old phrase, location, location, location. It's convenient to almost everywhere I need to go in Tampa.

The heights blog is fun.Also
thebest ever neighborhood in the damn city.
You can walk and take your animals out and be safe
I live near some officers and someone who drives an unmarked car for this city.
I FEEL SO MUCH SAFER HERE THAN ANYWHERE ELSE IN THIS CITY.
Thank you seminole heights!!!
for having the best neigbors and their dogs and the school is one my son attended when he was a little boy . THE PUBLIX IS NICE.
The library and all their staff.
