I live in the land of cookie cutter houses. I don’t really know what it’s like to live any other way. I can imagine that it would be nice to have privacy and lots of land, but it is great for my kids to have so many neighborhood friends to play with.

It’s crazy isn’t it? We’re looking for someplace in the country, but houses and development are creeping into the area like mad. I don’t like it, but such is life I guess. Green acres… that’s what I want!

I hope you’re feeling better Leanne!

Hope you are feeling better! they build houses, here in Southern Maine, like crazy! I live in a nice neighborhood and even there they are building on lots that are teeny tiny. Places where a house should not be. I thinkmost people are house poor.

We scored on our house. But, should we sell we do not where we would go. Except, rural VT. Possibly. The houses are too expensive. I may live here forever! Living in an ocean community I cannot complain too much. In the winter I can even glimpse Portland Headlight from my LR windows. And, the lighthouse light shines in our home year round. How cool is that?

What a sad commentary on what was once a beautiful land. Someone needs to write new words to America the Beautiful.. :bawling: Because it isn’t any more. Here’s something that the developers never about (or didn’t care).. we’re running low on water… and guess what – Lake Michigan’s water level has gone down – I think 17 inches in the last year or two….

I lived in South Suburbs of Chicago growing up, we had a pretty decent neighborhood, big lots, house spaced far aport where you didn’t hear what so and so was yelling about. 😉 But when I went back in 2005, new developers had come in and were trying to spruce up the old place (it had become quite rundown in the last 20+years) by tearing down the old houses and building $300,000.+ homes in their place. So you had these beautiful new homes dwarfing these old homes that still were standing. It was pitiful. It was not my old neighborhood anymore. Oh, and my old house, it was still standing when we were there, but I got an email from an old friend not long after I got home and was told that it was now gone, a new house going up in it’s place. My childhood home gone forever. At least I took lots of pictures when I was there.

Hope you feel better soon. I feel your pain…Allergies are killing me here!! :hug:

I know it’s not so nice on the eyes (or the nerves for that matter) traveling here to the “chicago-land” area, but it really is nice to have you! I miss you….. :indifferent: But I know what you mean. I think the traffic is the worst of it. I love my home and the neighborhood I live in but I wouldn’t mind moving—SOUTH!!! Anyway, thanks for visiting. I love you. xxoo
