I drive by a mostly abandoned shopping mall - not in the ghetto, on my way home. Last summer, the city started spraying the weeds and trying to make it look like it still has potential. It might...but anyway, I've been so surprised by how quickly nature started taking over the parking lots!
I was thinking about that this morning, on my drive into work, through the ghetto.
There are a couple vacant houses, there's actually a lot of them, but a couple of them have started to "cave in" now. They didn't appear to be in that bad of shape a couple years ago. I wonder, what is it exactly that we're doing, inside our home, that keeps nature at bay? Is it climate control? Is it simply moving around through the rooms? Is it because we spray to keep the bugs out? Or because we mow the lawn all summer? I wonder.
