you know you're from a small town when...

..the tractors cause traffic jams

...you only have one stoplight and one main street

...country music blares in the "grocery store"

if you can even call it that, it's so expensive and small.

...no one thinks anything of wearing cowboy boots to church

...your car is constantly dirty because of all the dirt roads

...you can smell the mint fields and crops when you wake up in the morning

...your town has a mint festival and everyone shows up to watch the "parade" 

..the Welcome sign reads "home of the annual frog- jumping contest"

...weekend excitement comes with floating the river and having tailgater parties afterward

As much as I sometimes hate it, I love growing up and being part of a small

town and the friendships I've made. :)
