Delight in disorder..

Visited Auburn today. It is a small university town in Alabama, a two-hour drive from Atlanta. A quaint little town, Auburn has a somewhat wild beauty to it. No manicured lawns or trimmed bushes; everything seems to grow wild. Leaves scattered all over the yard, trees shedding all over, I loved it! None of the artificial landscaping and picture-perfect houses that one sees in Atlanta. Total delight in *disorder*! I saw so many bushes, shrubs and plants that I’ve never seen in this city. I mean, it was almost as if someone decided to spare Auburn of all the shears and green lawns and marble fountains and stone angels. Decided to let Auburn be. I loved the town.
