    "I lived in the Highlands for 28 years and loved every minute of it. Growing up, I walked to school, church, playground, grocery store, after school job, friends’ houses, and restaurants. As a young adult living with my parents, I walked to work, bars, and enjoyed taking public transportation to school. Neighbors I grew up hanging out with from the Highlands were guests at my sister’s wedding. "

    "Neighbors are nice but don’t invade your space. Great parks especially for dogs at Rockford park and other nearby river walks. Unfortunately I pick up a lot of broken glass along the way and my dogs have cut their paws on trails along the river where the old train track used to run. People come and have their graduation pictures taken in the Gibraltar estate and unfortunately some leave their trash in our bushes and sidewalks. Take your trash with you! "
