Mother Nature - Why have you let her take over?
For those who are used to seeing the world perfect and manicured, you may ask why I have chosen to let Mother Nature recapture a corner of her earth here at the Yellow Turtle Inn. I have watched subdivisions spring up right behind me and seen animals hungry because we humans have stolen what was originally theirs.
I purposefully let the berries, nuts, bushes and trees grow to create a safe haven for the birds, bees and animals and send oxygen back into the planet. Lawns are not fertilized with chemicals to pollute the streams and our drinking water.
Because “civilization” sprung up around the Inn, I chose to create a safe haven for those wishing to meditate without watching the neighbors. I know it is a foreign concept for those being used to a Holiday Inn atmosphere.
Nature! It is the Inn thing now!
So I invite you to take delight in a natural surrounds. See how many berries you can find. Can you find the hawks and their nests? Have you ever seen a squirrel’s nest? And the ground hogs, mother natures irrigators, are the clowns and us the fools for getting rid of them. They burrow holes so that the huge trees can be watered deep and not have the water run off after a huge storm. God really did have a plan for each animal. We just somehow got screwed up when we humans started to think we were God and landscaped and paved everything out of existence.
I invite you to give a small part of your yard back to nature.
