Is Landscaping Really That Important? Or Should You Look at Different Landscape.

The semi-local paper the Visalia Times-Delta has a feature each Saturday in their local section called "Fix It." There have been some real problems that have been fixed I'm sure, but lately the column has turned into a whine fest. Today's entry is that the city or Cal-Trans or someone should clean up the Highway 198 median, "especially portion from Woodland Street overpass west. Mr. Ernie Reyes of Visalia can't understand why officials can't keep the median clean and landscaped appropriately in west Visalia."

Well, Mr. Reyes and other concerned citizens, why don't YOU go clean it up? I think given the conditions of the county (county employees striking), the state (budget shortfall) and the nation (Need I say anything here?) that WE have more important things to worry about than landscaping.

After reading Kent's wonderful story about adventure, I've been thinking again about my life and the direction it's going. Not that I see major changes, but how can I get more difference out of what I spent my hours doing. I like what I do, I love my family, but I want to get to the point that I examine the world around closely. On a daily basis.
