There does not seem to be a shortage of
people who are willing to tend to other people's business. That is why I
live outside of any known city limits. When I drive into the city for
commercial reasons, it is a constant reminder of why I do. The grafitti,
and major apartment complexes and homeless encampments, and megamarts,
traffic, rude people, NOISE POLLUTION, the list goes on. I pull back into
my driveway, often greeted by several blacktail deer, or a covey of quail
and my dog wagging her welcome greeting is a nice reminder, too. Don't
anticipate changing anytime soon.
