I recently visited Kennebunkport, Maine (yes, the fancy town where the Bush family lives), and they apparently had some kind of wildflower initiative that was incentivizing people to grow native wildflowers instead of the typical manicured mulched gardens I see in the northeast. Not only was it more beautiful than the usual, but it seemed to enhance the quaintness of the place (especially given how overrun by tourists it was).

People are ridiculous. So afraid of change!
