This thread is sort of a composition of a number of threads that I've seen posted recently. It seems like talking to your neighbors is almost a thing of the past.
Just last night I spent almost an hour and a half shooting the sh!t with the guy who lives directly across the street with me. The guy who lives behind me actually dug up some of his herbs from his garden and help them start in my yard earlier this summer. We talk with another family up the street from us almost on a daily basis when we are out walking. Another family that's across the street has us over for beers every now and then and waves every time we walk by.
When we lived in Omaha we had beers almost every Friday in one neighbors driveway and the other neighbor on the other side of us chit chatted with us almost daily.
My wife and I go out of our way to socialize with the people around us, but it seems like almost a lost art.
