A Place In Pittsburgh
Even though I’m originally from the other side of the world, I now call Pittsburgh my home. It’s hard to believe that I live only fifteen minutes outside a busy downtown city, and the natural environment is still so beautiful. Unlike the surrounding areas, the grass is always bright and healthy, and large trees become my skyscraper views. I do see a few small buildings in the distance behind the fences, but mostly all of them are helpful. The air here is pollutant free, since everyone here travels by foot and there is no need for excessive honking and harmful exhaust fumes. Although it is very fun, in the summer it gets very hot because I spend most of my day outside in the exhausting sun. As I pace back and forth in my secluded area a loud guy instructs people to come close to the tall metal fence by me then around the rest of the park. Then there is usually a large group of little children and annoyingly strange people with fanny packs and excessively flashing cameras. My enjoyable time continues until the snowfall comes and I have to spend most of my day indoors until the bitter winter breeze is over and the icy pathways are all cleared up. Despite how far I am from my natural environment, I am taken very good care of here with many people feeding me and helping me to live a better life. I love living in this amazing natural oasis outside the downtown city and I think anyone that visits would agree that it is a wonderful and beautiful habitat.
