No, no. I like seclusion for either activity and the road is a deal breaker. ---

Sorry, Joe, but I don’t want to go for a picnic with you. It isn’t the location that is the turn-off. It is you. Why? Your posting history. ---

I wouldn’t even bury a body there. ---

Yeah, I don’t think it’s “PonyDancer47 was horrified at this patch of grass!” but rather deciding which photos would get them the jury reaction they want. From that angle I wouldn’t picnic there but maybe behind me is a lovely field or copse of trees that I could look at with the factory behind me. ---
