The back to nature movement is still strong, even in urban environments. People are realizing they can take even a small backyard and transform it into a wilderness. But sometimes, backyard wilderness may attract the unexpected. This small plot in Bethlehem is an example. The owners carefully cultivated an urban playground for their kids who enjoyed it immensely. But it attracted gnomes who tunnelled up from their subterranean complexes.
This race of gnomes is benevolent and kind and they love children. It wasn’t long before the kids began visiting the gnomes in their complexes and started adopting their lifestyle creating classic parent/child conflict. The kids left to join the gnomes, but they’ll be back. Gnomes aren’t crazy about teenagers.
