Deconstruction

Deconstruction sounds better than destruction, although it is destruction, it's just in a positive way.

The south side of EskDale is looking a little different nowadays.

The sewer line was having some issues a month or so ago and it was determined that all the sewer pipe on that side of the community was going to need to be replaced.

Faber Construction is out here getting the job done.

 Boys and water...
Got distracted, so while Phil is out here with his equipment we decided to have him knock down some houses that have been abandoned for awhile.

 

 

 Before's and After's ☺

 

 

 

 

 

Desert Flowers

Last Saturday afternoon, while at EskDale, Cary, the kids and I went for a little drive around the "loop".

We spotted some flowering globe mallows and I wanted to stop and take some pictures.

(much to my impatient husband's chagrin) 

In his defense, I had to scope the area for snakes for a good five minutes or so before I would even start taking pictures.  ☺ 

Don't really want to be surprised while taking a picture like this. 

It was such a pretty day.

Looking good!

Ah, all the possibilities!  

Construction Update #8

It's Spring in EskDale and the work is going full force.

Sidewalk is finished and now everything is connected.

Still adding dirt to the middle area and then the sprinker installing will start

and pulling out the trees that needed to come out.

Meanwhile...over at the center.

Stairs have been put up, and the deck is up

It doesn't look very big from here.

but from here, it's pretty good sized. ☺
