That is the reality of it, forced out, or...... say you hold on to your place awhile, you know after you are surrounded, then the township condemns your land, and takes it under eminent domain ! Saw that happen to an old farm in North Brunswick NJ, in '00-'01. 150 years in the family and they turned him upside down and put a pitchfork where the sun don't shine with that deal. It's enough to really get one irked, not too many other options standing in that big wheel of progress's way.
I just read in the paper that those same 2 pharmacy/convenience stores, Walgreens & Rite Aid, will be doing more destruction nearby, they work in pairs, wherever you see a mcdonalds, a burger king pops up, or vice versa.
On 2 more proposed locations, they want to demolish 2 buildings one built in 1797 and another is an old farmstead, from a family that started farming in the 1600's. It's sad, there is no regard for any of the history or the land, because it does not pay.
With so much of this going on now, I can see being uprooted from this place which dates back the 1830's, what else can you do, they'll just force you out eventually indirectly or directly. There is an activist group that has mustered a lot of hatred here, beacuse they have worked hard to keep the town in check on these proposed developments,they helped stop walmarts, but beyond that though, not much else is standing in the way. Can't blame people for selling, the developers offer good money for these places.
I agree, where do you go after being forced out. Well one has to keep their sanity, it's just sad, because not much can be done to stop this.
Makes you feel like this bale looks, the last one:
Once a dairy, nice hay ground, grows tall and thick, with minimal weeds, there was so much hay ground here years back, I don't think weeds existed LOL !

Today's Featured Article - Talk of the Town: Winterizing Engines - To Drain or Not to Drain? - by Russ Berry. What is this strange attraction I have to equipment and machinery? How did I get this way? I came from the suburbs and own a small horse farm in rural Loudoun County, Virginia. You can call me a "weekend farmer." The local farmers do. Does it bother me? No. I am just happy to have their friendship. At least the word "farmer" is in my title. But what is the attraction? How can I explain the sensation and exhilaration I feel when I turn the key and hear the engine come to life (most
