The Character Town, A Preface.

 A Character Town is an Emotional Experience. 

There is a hometown in our minds where we want to live, to visit or to have a business. It appeals to our senses; all of them, from sights and sounds to tastes and smells. It feels good, sensually and physically. It is a place where we want to live in a home that is safe, comfortable and affordable; a place where we know our neighbors; a place where we can walk; where we can easily go shopping, go out to eat and be entertained or educated. 

It’s also a place where we visit. We look for small cities and towns with character where we can enjoy an afternoon, a day, a week-end or longer. A newly discovered character town feels good.
