Love the beautiful falls of theaustrianguy photo. For my entry I have a photo of some trees planted recently in hopes that this coming spring they provide some privacy from the newly built houses that loom over my backyard leaving me feeling totally exposed.

There seems to be a trend to tear down old houses and rebuilt totally changing the neighborhood. The house behind me built in 1915 was torn down a year ago and the three new houses that replaced it are totally out of scale and price for any other home in a three block radius around us.

Still adjusting to this change, hope very much the trees help. Anyone else having this happen in their neighborhood?

Best, _ljl
