Love That Country Smell

Indeed.

“Your quality of life thing is just messed up. You moved out here to the country to get away from the city noises and now complain about the country noises and smells,” said Marincic, who lives in another part of the city about six miles from the Deer Haven area.

  1. Haha.  This woman is so right.  So many of the people who buy their lots in the middle of nowhere and build their big homes only want the appearance of rural life.  That a rural lifestyle also exists is a nuisance to be stopped.  They also want local governments to run water and sewer and curb and gutter everywhere for them too.

    These people should go find a nice piece of property that abuts a marsh or nature preserve or city park.

  2. The Empress and I are excited to move to the country soon. We hear cows instead of harleys, we hear geese & cranes instead of semis. We hear crickets and birds instead of children screaming their heads off and POed mothers telling them to STFU.

    I do not mind the country smells. We’ll get whiffs of dairy air from time to time but it beats waking up at 3:27 am wondering if a tornado is hitting or if its another (@*^ semi tractor trailer bouncing through the intersection at high speed.

  4. And here I was wondering if who ever fired, what sounded like a rather large firearm, got that deer that ran through the front yard a few hours ago.

  5. They should also ban driving, some cars whizzed by my body on my morning walk with my dog!

  6. I grew up in Amarillo (in the Texas Panhandle, for you non-Texans), and on days when the wind was right, the smell of feedlots could be, well, let’s say pungent. Smells like money, sez the feedlot operators.
