Fading Away
Personal memory by Chris Logar
2017 • Blandon, PA, USA
The entire town I grew up in was once farms and forest. Slowly, the land was purchased, chunk by chunk, and turned into housing. There are pictures of when I first moved into my house at age three, wherein the background there was open land. Now, houses stand there. While growing up, more of these farms were sold, and to this day more houses are being built.
