Last night I left the city and went to a part of the suburbs that feels like countryside to me, Luscher Farm. It is two old family farms that have been preserved and turned into community gardens. I don’t have a garden there, but I like to go and just wander through the meadows and explore the abandoned house that was apparently owned by someone named Violet Lang. Something about the green rolling meadows of this place remind me of Vermont. It’s one of my favorite spots. [photos from flickr]
