Lucy Davis

I was recently hired as a freelance reporter with the Carlyle Observer, so I want to briefly introduce myself and share some personal observations since I moved from Saskatoon to the area at the end of January 2023.
As a recent retiree, I jumped at the opportunity to apply for the casual freelance reporter position that was posted for the Carlyle area. What a wonderful way to meet all of you and attend community events. My name is Lucy Davis but you can now call me Scoop (I am smiling).
Having lived in cities the majority of my life, it's been wonderful settling in as a new southeast citizen. More importantly, having worked all of my life, it's awesome having time to just be present, and see what's going on around me. Everyone I have met so far has made the move so much easier and I thank you for being welcoming. 
So, several fun facts about myself are: I love dancing, but I didn’t say I was good at it, just that I like it. I ride a motorcycle. I like cooking, going for walks and yoga. My children are grown so I love three-hour bubble baths. I am always up for new adventures as long as it doesn’t involve heights which terrify me.
Some fun facts I have learned since I moved here:
•Wave at everyone;
•Rural living equals friendly smiles and easy eye contact;
•Such a supportive and strong feeling of community!;
•Fun activities are happening all the time. The Lions fundraiser dinner, silent auction event, dinner theater, the Red Barn, the tradeshow, and town-wide garage sale are some of the activities I attended since January.
*I need to learn the four directions because "turn left" or "turn right" doesn't work that well out here. I seriously can get lost just turning around.
•All birds need a different kind of house. I am still in shock Who knew that? And there are a lot of bird varieties out here.
Oh, and one of the most important things I am learning about retirement is everyday really could be Saturday. 
Thanks for reading this and thank you for sharing upcoming stories with me.
