Doo doo doo looking out my back door
This was the view looking out my back door just a few years ago. Twenty-two acres known as the Tiffany Park Woods were behind us. Lovely, dark and deep, they were home to deer and other small critters and full of birds that sang… Continue Reading “Doo doo doo looking out my back door”

A Halt to the Work at the Tiffany Park Woods
Too little too late. The beautiful Tiffany Park Woods are nearly gone, the birds and wildlife already evicted, the native flora disappeared. Still, I was heartened to know someone is paying attention to the promises made by the developer when they obtained the permit to… Continue Reading “A Halt to the Work at the Tiffany Park Woods”
