"Downtown" there's a post office, a general store, a tiny strip mall with an LCBO (liquor and beer), a small bakery, a hair salon, a tiny pharmacy (more of a drug store really) and a pizza joint. There's also a Chinese takeout place and another salon. I have to drive 15 km or so to Stittsville to do groceries.<BR/><BR/>Alissa - although we've been officially amalgamated and are part of Ottawa, we are still the Village of Carp, as it says on all the signs leading into town.alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16483907412532940799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34355020.post-35565471231336945902007-06-26T17:42:00.000-04:002007-06-26T17:42:00.000-04:00I love my small town.

Of course, if I tried using the word "village" here I'd be laughed out of town. :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34355020.post-83011511845308038452007-06-26T16:12:00.000-04:002007-06-26T16:12:00.000-04:00I'll take living in a small town, but NOT the one ...I'll take living in a small town, but NOT the one I grew up in where everyone knows every little detail of your life. Having people be familiar and friendly is one thing, but too involved an nosey is completely another. And trust me, my hometown is nosey!Brianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13423939071371406576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34355020.post-4393488551763718612007-06-26T15:55:00.000-04:002007-06-26T15:55:00.000-04:00I love living in our small town.

You have to drive 16 miles to the next town for that kind of stuff. I do love the way that neighbors all look out for each other.Stacyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15128288455114077379noreply@blogger.com
