Another excellent Jenkinson quote from your link: "From the land's point of view, there is no difference between a sword and a ploughshare." Well. I hadn't considered it that way, but that is a real solid point.
I love that you are working on property, "right to roam" type stuff (at least that's what it sounds like), etc. All things that are near and dear to my own thinking these days. Re: the damaged gate, in my own favorite stomping grounds at Council Grove someone decided it would be a good place to dump all the leaves they (presumably) raked up from their yard. The leaves were one thing, but half of them were still in the oversized plastic bags. Why do that? It fills me with despair that I should have to make effort to get along with whoever the person is who thinks that is acceptable, and yet, I do. It's very frustrating.
