Sadly, Delaware farms are now becoming housing subdivisions. Open spaces disappearing. Quaint two lane country roads becoming four lanes with pedestrian unfriendly intersections with the typical Home Depot’s, Walmarts, etc. A poorly designed suburban shite-hole. Same happened to Central and South Jersey years ago.

You’re probably correct. Last time I was off of I-95 driving thru Delaware country was two years ago, meeting family for brunch in Chesapeake City. It was typical suburban sprawl then. Prime area for what you’re saying, warehouses and data centers. We can only hope not
You should hit A Bar after the show! Often some FMUers there. If you're looking for food, Keg and Lantern, Norteño, and Minnows are good options around that latitude.
Heartbreaking, I lived in Atlanta from 1985-87. Once visited and spent the night at a friend’s house in Winder, Ga. Was all farmland surrounding the small town. It was a big deal to have a McDonald’s in town. Looked at Winder, GA on Google Maps and it is all suburban sprawl and beyond, connected to Atlanta.
Because if you inherited 500 acres that papaw used to have greenbelt tax exemptions on it so he could pursue his hobby of bailing hay and breeding cows and you don't share that hobby it is a financial burden on you that you would have to practically give away.
