Changes

The view out my kitchen window is changing.  The view is to the east.  I look cross my neighbor's backyard to pasture and tall firs a half mile away,  But that view is changing.  That former vacant farm land is becoming residential.  The land on the east side of Teakwood Street is now growing houses.  Ten are already occupied.  As I write this another two-story giant is being put up in my view.  The trees in the distance are being hidden.  Progress is not without its costs.
