Yeah, nature and the great outdoors is all just a seemingly wonderful thing until you find it in your underwear or into things and places you really don't want it to be. Seems I'm always fighting something around here. Whether it is squirrels into the bamboo, raccoon and possums into the bird feeders and then into the fruit trees when the fruit is ripe, bears in the bird feeders, or just darn fire any mounds popping up underfoot (sometimes literally), nature up close and personal isn't as warm and fuzzy as it seems from afar. And that isn't even considering the mosquitoes and yellow flies that can make all the difference between a pleasant walk on our paths, and an arm flapping run back to the house as quick as we can muster. But would I REALLY want to live in some place like downtown Baltimore or New York?
