Guantanamo, New Jersey

 

The common practice for some here in New Jersey is the installation of white plastic fences, around their property. They are inexpensive, I dare say cheap, have the tendency to get stained over time, reflect sunlight into otherwise shaded areas, and frankly are rather low class.

The installation of these from house to house appears like a prison camp, a Guantanamo in our location. Upon further study it appears that they have a strong ethnic factor, perhaps re-establishing possible family ties to establishments of like nature.

So house after house, and these are hardly low budget abodes, up go the vinyl. They appear on multi million dollar homes, and the result is one fence after another. Down go the trees and up goes the plastic. In fact they remove all trees and fence themselves in with protective shields!

This would be an interesting sociological study.

BTW, this is my fence, trees and an open deer fence.
