New house

They finished the deck next door. It’s not only taller, but as big as ours. AND it is close enough to spit. Might have to build a taller fence.

Our view from the patio keeps getting better.

Well they are building a new house next to us. They have begun digging up the ground today. It’s early, but it looks like the back deck will be facing ours. I guess it might be time to plant some large bushes or make the fence taller. Ugh.

New house on the block

So we have this new house being built on the corner. When they poured the concrete it looks small so we sort wondered what was up. Well they started the second floor today. It is going to have an entire full-sized floor up top. That will make this new house look entirely different than every other house in the neighborhood. It is also right on the corner, the first thing you see when you come in. I really hope they can make it blend in with the exterior colors. Either way it is going to stick out like a sore thumb.

What a mess!

They are building another new house on our street and they have made a complete mess of the street and empty lots. I guess we have a lot of red clay around us. They have made 3-4 large piles of the stuff and while they have been moving it around with their back hoe, they have dropped it all over the road. Everyone’s driveway and cars are completely covered with it. So far we have not tracked any into our house. I hope we get enough rain and snow soon to wash it away. The loose gravel they put everywhere is another story. I have a feeling our neighborhood is going to be messy for a while.
