It makes me sick. I make me sick. During the Obama depression, I sold the farm field next to my house (at a loss) to this millionaire that's buying up land all over this neighborhood. I had basically turned the joint into a nature preserve. I kept the pond beautiful and clean, stocked with bass, catfish, perch, bluegill. It would typically take at least 12 hours a week in the summer to "mow the lawn". It was more than that. There were 110 apple trees, the pond is an acre and 20 feet deep, spring-fed, cold. There's a metal pole barn with a concrete floor and utilities. The two neighbors that border that land loved the way I had it. their decks overlooked the pond. It was like living on the Serengeti. I kept it beautiful. This guy devalued their houses as well with his greed. He basically bulldozed it flat. All the trees are gone. The pond has turned into an overgrown swamp.There's not much value to the amount of turf he gained for bullshit soybeans and dent corn maybe another 5 acres. I see those deer out there, the turkeys, the mating pair of geese and their offspring that have been coming for years...it's like an atom bomb dropped on their world and I could have prevented it by not selling that land back then. And way back, behind the field, I can see utility workers erecting giant metal poles. I know what's coming. Pretty soon I'll be walking to work. It's a war crime. I'm Adolf Eichmann.
