Here, too. Ten years ago, I was surrounded by pastures and cows as far as
the eye could see. Now there are McMansions on 10 acres of lawn as far as
the eye can see. There are no people around all week (gotta work late to
own a McMansion) and lawnmowers running all weekend....the lords of the
McMansions take pride in 'surveying' their kingdoms from their lawnmowers.
