Aghast by the invasion to our little forest

March 31st, 2009

As usual, my blogspot  is at my website: http://www.elkvoice.com/flute_blog

We were visited today by the power company for the purpose of clearing the power-line access. We thought it was going to be some tree trimming as usual. However we had a big surprise when one of these (see the link below) started clear cutting huge amounts of our lot.  I’m just sick at what has been done to our little forest and all the small creatures that live there… let alone the migratory species that also run through our place.

We’re contacting the local Nature Preservation organization to see how we can heal this violence to the land with replanting of native plants: bushes, trees and wildflowers.  It will recovery, but I still feel sick over it. Especially, when the power company doesn’t seem to be following their own published brochures. I notified the township as well.

Ok, just my ranting. I don’t like to see places where I go to pray getting mowed over and laced with poison.
