I always despised it for being blase - neither city, nor country, with none of the benefits of either and all the drawbacks of both, and the community seemed to lack distinction and personality as much as the atmosphere. Though my family is very tight-knit, I couldn't wait to get out someday. I dreamed of the days the older people would talk about, when there were fields where children could play, and nature and wildlife for stretches between the homes, not just every several miles contained in public parks.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15468713627933431744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16542790.post-39952194612150832792010-03-19T11:04:27.700+00:002010-03-19T11:04:27.700+00:00They paved paradise...

It is hard to believe yet true, that here in picture postcard Switzerland nearly 1 metre (0.9 metres) of land is disappearing under construction, mainly of houses, EVERY SECOND! The fields are growing houses.P. M.

How sad. When I moved to our little acre 27 years ago..it was very rural. Now it takes me 10 minutes to get out of my driveway. And the newbies are not friendly..They think they have all the rights...I don't understand it. The good news is the wildlife comes to my property since I leave big brush piles and overgrown grasses and trees for them!Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14819844673551315071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16542790.post-85847647522464087462010-03-18T22:04:37.944+00:002010-03-18T22:04:37.944+00:00Lovely words about a sad state of affairs.
