Just a stone’s throw away.

where we moved to when i was a kid, the folks were Scotch-Irish. Mostly Presbyterians or Methodist. They still used colloquialisms from the olde country.One of my old relatives whose parents were born in Scotland used the idiom "a-" before a verb to mean someone was in the process of doing something.
"He was a-goin' to the racetrack, when..."
"She was a-whoopin' an' a-hollerin' when she saw that polecat..."
