I drive through the suburbs every day on my way to work. There is a striking similarity between the efficiently designed regularity of the neutral toned houses and the gray cubicles I spend my day in. BUT, when I turn my eyes away from the houses this is what I see: beautiful green pastures, fields of grass darkened by the shadows of passing clouds, sheep, cows, goats, a lama, wetlands, tall reeds, red-winged blackbirds, great blue herons, crumbling abandoned houses and farms, aspiring Christmas trees, wild flowers.
