Feeling a bit stretched thin. I found myself looking for houses in Montana, just so I could look at their views.
Click here to view one of my favorites: Montana house
I can just smell the air there. Kind of sweet and cold.
Or this one: Montana house 2
Can you imagine looking out your family room window and seeing that?
Suburbia is yucky. You forget about the REAL world. You forget that without subdivisions and malls the size of small towns, our country can actually be beautiful. Our town has great things for our kids, including an excellent park district, lots of friends close by, and decent schools. But I miss seeing nature. It's deadening. The most "natural" things you'll find here are the landscaped berms in front of Walmart.
We need a vacation from the suburbs. Away from the giant inflatable Halloween display on our neighbor's lawn. Good lord that is the ugliest, stupidest thing I have EVER seen.

Ahhh! Montana...."Big Sky Country" I share your "dream", but must share also the difficulty of chosing between "Mountains" and "Water" i.e. Lakes, Waves; Ideally, we'd have BOTH!! :)
ReplyDeleteNo, that's only for celebrities and drug lords.
ReplyDeleteIf you move to Montana... I will be sad. And then I will come and visit you. Wait, if you are going to move, why can't you look at houses in Hawaii?? :)

Danielle, I'm definitely tempted. I'll see if I can figure out how to take a picture inconspicuously. :)
