Happy Good Neighbor Day
The day we moved into our home in 2000, the neighbors to the right and left of us came to welcome us, newlyweds brimming with excitement about owning our own home. Neighbor to the left later retired, but the family that moved in after them were just as gracious and nice. I have seen their daughter grow up (she's now taller than me) and we have gotten to know our neighbors across the street, in the corner and even a couple of doors down.
Today is Good Neighbor Day and Flowers by Robert Taylor continues its heartwarming tradition of giving away a dozen roses free to anyone who promises to give 11 of those roses away to neighbors, teachers, friends, co-workers and even complete strangers.

The flower shop will open at 7 a.m. today to distribute the flowers and the giveaway could continue until 10 a.m., unless the supply runs out. This year's distribution was almost cancelled because of economic woes but lo and behold, an anonymous donor (and Good Neighbor Extraordinaire) stepped in to help.
It's a great idea, and thanks to Robert Bryant for continuing this tradition. Flowers by Robert Taylor is at 2616 E. Garvey Ave., West Covina. For more information, call (626) 331-5359.
We love our neighbors. Hubby does the mayoral walkabout most weekends and catches up on family news with the other dads around. Our boys play with the neighbor boys across the street, and we invite each other to birthday parties. Hey, I can even call up one neighbor and borrow a can of tomato sauce! Having good neighbors is a blessing we don't take lightly.
