Houses. Rows and rows of them
I take back roads to avoid rush hour traffic where possible. My usual route runs past farms and fields, and most mornings I have to stop for wildlife crossing the road (yes, I brake for chipmunks and birds). There's been some construction near part of it (they put in a stop light, which I am grateful for; turning left onto 164 without a light really sucks), so I haven't been paying so much attention to the trucks and workmen and signs...
... and then this morning I noticed that where I thought they might be building a house in one of the fields, it's not _a_ house, but a whole subdivision of them! :cry:
There goes my traffic-free commute and my relaxing drive through the country. I mean really, we moved AWAY from the suburbs. You know, getting AWAY from being a sardine. Now here they come following us further out. I'm really getting tired of urban sprawl.
