Time to Fall Back
Comments (18)I am rural too, Marda........I'm not in the city. Until very recently, as soon as you crested the hill after the turn off to my road and got past the small residential section you sank into a glen and it was pitch black and remained so until you got to our property. I'm glad you don't have to live with it, but I'm asking you if you know why you don't. You said "We can't control everything that's built but we can put restrictions on night lighting, and noise levels and we do". Well, our township is unzoned, as is a large part of the county........so we are actually more rural than your area. And the fact that we don't control is why we have so little regard for preserving the sanctity of our surroundings in as natural a state as possible. What I am saying is that, in order for your community to have reached the point where it is controlled, somebody had to raise consciousness and make noise. The voters had to have been swayed somewhere in their lives through reading or conversations to have passed restrictions, as a group. It has to happen here before we irreparably change the face of this once very agrarian part of our state. Once it's gone......it's hard to undo. I suspect your community is more of the anomaly, than mine. We are still the farming community trying to make the transition to a non-agrarian trend in which this country is heading. It hasn't even dawned our community to preserve its legacy. Your historical part of the state is light years ahead of us on that. We are just going to wake up and find it gone, like the rest of Generica. And, I think this is a common trend as you go west across American farmland and that's why I took the liberty to say "Americans" instead of our community. No, most of our stores in the near-by town are not open 24 hours a day. Just the one huge shopping area on one long, barren of nature strip. But, that's where all of our stores are. And there are very few independent business left there. They are chains, and boxes ......and more chains and boxes. We have no business to speak of in our inner city. If you want peace, quiet and darkness........just live downtown....See MorePickering Open and Fall Shipping Back
Comments (5)Hi Ingrid Normally Pickering opening up for the fall is the start of the new year for me for rose wandering and order setting and it use to be a source of excitement on this site when they opened. However over the last three years they have shrunk their org offerings, and well there unfortunately is nothing new or a regain in the inventory some I wanted again that they use to carry ... Gabrielle Noyelle being one (a 30's peach colored moss) and the portlands Arthur Sansal, Miranda and Louis Gimard (another moss). The chinas have also continued to shrink from a high of 13 down to 9 ... but as the man said once in a memo "no demand no incentive to carry the cost"....See MoreOT, but don't forget to 'fall back'
Comments (6)I hate that it gets dark so early now. Me too. Next month it will be dark at 4 PM. I'm a slug without sunlight and can run like the Energizer Bunny on long days in June. Becoming a snowbird looks better every year :D Does anyone else get thrown off by the time change? Don't know if I have a weird bio-rhythm or an acutely sensitive internal clock or what, lol. It feels like jet lag. It even happens when I travel back home, an hour difference in the time zone. Takes a good few days to 'adapt'. Just curious if anyone else experiences that?...See MoreFall Back!
