Can you describe where you live

Way out on the country roads, amidst the farm lands stretching far. Large pond outside back door with horse pastures to the right and left. Large creek feeds the pond and three more throughout the property. Ducks tame and wild swim and play... Geese fly overhead at times and White cranes fish along the lily pads as frogs sing jump and splash. An occasional gator will visit from the swamp behind the creek and ponds but it gets coaxed to leave very quickly when seen. Horses graze with no worries in sight and a lazy dog sleeps quietly until time to eat another meal.

In the country, where a traffic jam is getting stuck behind a truck hauling bales of hay. Turkeys meander across the road to check out the farm fields. Herons, like mini pterodactyls, fly overhead searching for food. Frogs and toads illuminate the air with song when the sun settles.

Alas, over the years, I've seen more farms up for sales, and more new subdivisions taking their place. The nearby village, with it's retail, business, and fast food, encroach slowly closer. What was 8 miles away is now 4. The hilly prairies have given way to concrete and asphalt.
