Community in a Small Town
When I was a younger person, growing up in Small Town USA could feel so boring at times. I would have given anything to live near a shopping mall, just to have a place to hang out with my friends that wasn't one of our parents' basements. The mall was like an exclusive foreign club, and every other teenager I met from anywhere-but-here had a membership to it. I was desperate to be in that club; desperate to have that club nearby to even have the option to be in it at all. Back then, I truly never thought I'd want to stick around my hometown of 500 people—all who seemed to be my parents' age or older, too.
But then I grew up, and now I'm the age my parents were then, and I get it. In this phase of my life, I am often reminded why I love living here so much, and one main point of that is the closeness of the community. People show up for one another in times of need but also in times of celebration. I am sure that exists in other places, but it's hard to envision an entire city coming together for somebody in the same way a small town does.

Celebrating Pumpkins & All Things Halloween
Halloween today is all about pumpkins carved with both scary and funny faces, costumed kids, candy, and spooky attractions like haunted houses, but Halloween can trace its roots back to the Celtic festival of Samhain, which was celebrated on November 1. The Celts believed that on this day, the souls of the dead returned home, so people dressed in costumes to confuse them and lit fires to drive away the evil spirits.
In the 8th century, Pope Gregory III moved All Saints Day to November 1, turning a secular event into a religious observance, and...
