I think we all owe a special debt of gratitude to those who conserve their property and especially those who are able to preserve it even after death. I am spending quite a bit of time in Fort Collins, CO, right now, and in contrast to Greeley to the South and East--rife with fracking operations-- there is so much perpetually conserved open space and wet lands for a city this size.... I am heartened.
Just walking on the trails, I see birds I rarely see and the prey and smaller predator species (fox and occasional coyote) are seemingly all in balance.
You set a wonderful example.
