Andover, MA
I find this place interesting because it
challenges my ideas about land use. The town of Andover has put up a
sign here at a little parking area and posted a trail map which includes
campsites. This is a small area which is bordered by
an interstate and industrial development. In addition to the trail
map, there is a very detailed sign about the dangers of ticks here, and a
warning about bow hunting. I can’t imagine who would camp here. When
I saw the camping sign, I started to consider
camping here as part of this project in local exploration. Patrick
suggested that it looks like a place homeless people would camp and has
advised that I am not to camp there alone.
To wrap this up, I googled Serio’s Grove – and
found this article of the exact type of bad behavior which Patrick
speculated was going on back there. Which leads me to conclude that
instead of challenging my ideas about land use I now
will let this news article feed my stereotypes.
