I am interested to know what life was like from the words of people who were still children then or they were from 16-30 years old.

Hmm. As a kid it was mostly nice, but how much of that is the time it was, or the fact I was a kid and so had less struggles to think about?
People smoked a lot more. Our neighbors behind us smoked 24/7 but not outside. And yet, in the summer, we could smell their house from our yard. It was torn down and when you walked past the lot you still smelled it lol. I’m so glad cigarettes are out. It sucked as a kid.
There was so much more wildlife! Birds! Insects! Windshields filled with insect bits. It’s scary so much has died.
Nolawns We stopped mowing our farm and it’s bug heaven now. In the early morning spring time, you can go to some of the fields and the sound of bees and insects is just so loud, it’s really amazing how, not doing work has helped recover just this area.
Township will fine us if we don’t cut it, unfortunately. We don’t have to have it look good, but it does have to be cut. We don’t rake leaves though, and that’s helped with the fireflies at least!
You should petition the township and see if you can get the law changed.
