I even approve of the new high-rise condos popping up all over. Anything to keep people from spreading into the wild areas. Of course, we could with less people too, but that's another story.mike r bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10897636938510045972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17931737.post-21211463525331357462007-08-16T16:54:00.000-07:002007-08-16T16:54:00.000-07:00The building frenzy is everywhere!

Our little bedroom community outside of Louisville is growing so fast, we're like the fastest growing county in the state (KY) but have absolutely NO industry! Everyone builds and sleeps here but drives and works in Louisville. I understand your frustration. I love your dog's name, too!

Our area here in NH is facing some of the same issues, but so far none as great as your part of the country. We try very hard in our community to recycle, reserve and preserve. This is a wonderful illustration... I hope Rat finds his way home in that evergrowing maze.Ginger*:)https://www.blogger.com/profile/14970160779830842600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17931737.post-82891732416701851612007-08-11T07:42:00.000-07:002007-08-11T07:42:00.000-07:00I love the texture and feel of colored pencils!
