In her Facebook submission, MacKnee shared about her “magical” neighborhood. “I've only lived in Plaza-Midwood for six months, but in this magical neighborhood, it seems as if every other house holds an old, dear friend who is delighted to welcome me,” she wrote. “My children's teachers from years ago; parents I served on PTAs with; former co-workers, offspring of co-workers ¬– everywhere I look there's someone I know. If I don't know the neighbor, I'm likely to know their church choir director, someone they're on a board with, some connection. The road outside my windows streams with joggers, dog-walkers, bicyclists, parents with strollers all day and into the evening. When I walk to a neighbor's house I'll most likely be stopped along the way by new friends and invited to sit and have a glass of wine on the porch. When I'm on my porch and a car passes, the driver always looks to see if they know me, and even if they don't, they give me a big smile because after all, it's Plaza-Midwood!”
