Late spring has come, and with it, a group of softball players who drive over the local park close to where I live. This isn’t anything new, as this has been going on for the better part of a decade or more. I have lived in one area long enough to watch, once choked with of weeds and almost unusable for most forms of recreation, to be cleaned up and have a baseball ring, soccer posts, and a playground. The surrounding area has also sprawled from what was once on the periphery of the town and where farmhouses were quite common. Now, nearly all of that land has been bought, redeveloped and repurposed to suburban expansion. It is an entirely different community from what it once was not so long ago, before I lived there and more residences in the area were constructed.
