A nice little town. Benson has been good to Mimi. It's been a nice place to live a simple life. Five O'clock traffic is over by five fifteen after the rush of about 50 cars. I say this not to put down the city. I think Benson is a great little town full of wonderful people. I was raised in Shelby, North Carolina. It had the same feeling. Lots of farms, churches, and a beautiful court house.
