Now that I have been away a bit from the center I have enjoyed many of the attractions of Sheffield. As briefly mentioned I live two blocks from a stream, in some parts bordered by brick walls, but mostly surrounded by trees and other vegetation. As 500 meters west of my house that stream (Porter Brook) goes through a huge park with a large pasture and some wooded areas. To the east, even closer to my house, the creek leads to the general cemetery, which is another very large green area.
My girlfriend lives as 1km uphill, you have to cross the stream and climb to get home, from a commercial and residential. But where she lives again is between grass and forest. At night prowling out porcupines. They are plump and clumsy, but when they want can be very fast. Days after seeing porcupines I was going down a street with many large houses and two separate patios. It was a little late, came from the library (must presume) and is a rather dark street. Suddenly, down a small wall that marked one of the yards came a fox. Yes, one such as those emerging in the films of the Victorian era pursued by riders on horseback and bloodhounds. Are not large, are about the size of a cocker, but being short and slender. Your redheads is intense. Ran across the street, quickly climbed the low wall in front yard and disappeared from sight.
Ah, but that's not all. About a week later I left a little late from my house to the library (more presumption, but it is true, the library is open 24 hrs.), Was walking beside the stream into the cemetery when in a forest clearing saw a skunk fat and hairy. It was white with two black stripes down her back, the fur was scattered to the sides and swayed while walking. When he saw me stood still for a moment (me too) and suddenly turned and ran. Looked like a clueless coward as well, made me very curious and tenderness. Fortunately no ugly smelled the pass where he had been.
Por último les cuento que ayer corté una pera de un árbol totalmente retacado. La cosa más deliciosa que te puedas comer.
Definitivamente voy a extrañar mucho Sheffield.
