City And Country

I’m not sure if the burg where I live is suburban or rural. It is within the metro-mess of DFW, but we have large lots - one to five acres. I don’t guess it really matters, but I want to point out that often rural areas are not different from cities.

In rush hour traffic in the city, it is not unusual for a ten mile trip to take an hour or more. This of course is four to six lanes wide with about a trillion cars.

In the "real country" the roads are mostly two lanes without any passing zones. A ten mile trip can take an hour or more. All it takes is one tractor and one pickup in front of you.

I still think that if God had intended for us to have cars, we would have been born with a parking space.
