Working Hard

The never ending chore of trimming continues.  Trim back heavily now so it is nice fresh new growth by the time residents return.

 
Work continues at the Bistro.  

 
Jaimie is getting pretty good at sawing those bricks in half.

 
I never took time to look inside the pump room by the main pool.  Golly Gee.  Lots of complicated looking stuff in there.

 
This brick work in front of Palm Park will look so nice.  This is where the food carts will set up when we hold outdoor events.

 
Tennis courts are getting their top coat.

 

 
Here's Dave....hard at work spreading the blue coating.

 

The fence crew is a friendly bunch.  Say Howdy to Dwayne, Jose, and Luis.

 

 

 
Here come the new palm trees for the bistro.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 
You may have heard on the news about another massive storm yesterday with damaging winds in the Phoenix area.  You can ignore it...it missed us entirely.  Monsoon season is definitely not over yet.

We have some threatening sky but many times it passes over or around us.  We thought the dark sky made for some pretty photographs.

Remember the photos from yesterday where they had to splice all those cables in order to move the sprinkler control station?

Splicing is now done.  WOW.

Now they have to install the boxes into their new location.

 All along the new street (Granite Drive) is a raised berm recently topped with fast growing oleanders to block the view of the field to the east.

That's a LOT of digging and planting for all those bushes as this is a continuous line all the way to the north gate.

 Yup.  It's a job for Faustino.

Just for fun, I looked back in my archives for a picture to post from exactly one year ago.  Look what one year can do.
