The small town feel

One of the things we like about living in Lakeside is that there is a small town feel. Like the town that Dave and I grew up in, Yucaipa. Yucaipa today is not the small town it was when we lived there.
On my run yesterday I saw that they are changing the sign of our local park, Lindo Lake Park. I have to say I like the old look better. It had more of the small town feel to it. Even with new modern sign Lindo Lake Park is still a great place to have a picnic with the kids.
What are the small details about your town you like?
