North Lot Progress and An Upcoming Announcement



Today's pictures are of the great progress on the north lot. All the pallets of tiles and bricks that were there last week have been moved, and the ground has been leveled. Obviously the driveway to the garage is going in. What a difference this will make for the neighbors -- no more mud and broken, blocked-off sidewalks! The south facade is completely changed, what with the wall being moved back into its original spot, and the brick retaining walls being almost finished. What surprises me is how the house seems to be so much closer to the sidewalk than it used to. It is so different from looking at the old photos of the complex. Just imagine how it will be when the construction fence comes down and you can really feel a part of the house and gardens.

I found out today about an exciting event being planned for next summer, to come right down our block. Stay tuned for more information and photos -- even the Martin House folks don't know about this one yet, I'll bet.

So far today (Saturday) we've had visitors from New Jersey, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts and Ontario. I also saw a car with Arizona plates around the corner, but I don't know if they were visiting the House or not.
