What View Next Year?

This is the view from our west facing window, albeit I’m outside taking this photo. The area to the extreme left will soon become a car park for the local shop. How far over into the field it will encroach remains to be seen. I do hope it is not a sign of things to come for this field.

The great Joni Mitchell said it all in 'Big Yellow Taxi':

'They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot
With a pink hotel , a boutique
And a swinging hot spot

Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got
Till it's gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot . . .'

This is such a beautiful view, I hope things won’t encroach much

@ankers70 I still think of that song too. Even more relevant as the years go by :-( Why does everything have to be spoiled?

That song often comes into my mind as I look around at development around my town. @stowgarden
