Progress to the Naked Eye

I'm getting a late start this morning because I had to make a fashion adjustment to The Mister's wardrobe. He's been working on healthy eating and exercising for the past few months, and as a result, he's been sagging like the cool guys in high school. Personally, I've indoctrinated my kids since they were very young against that look; and since The Mister doesn't like it either, he consented to go on a very short trip to buy clothes on sale. For him, shopping for clothes ranks somewhere below root canals and standing in line at the DMV on his preference list.

But I do have a picture I wanted to share, especially for those folks waiting to move in to Highland Groves. Yesterday we took a little tour by car, and the progress was quite encouraging. The guys were musing over the placement of some street lights at one of the entries, and then The Mister said, "Hey, wait a minute! We're talking about street lights here; that means there are street lights installed!" And so there are. Here are a bunch of street lights down Park Avenue:



There is also much more street paving, and the cement trucks were pouring sidewalks and curbs, and one of the lake edges has been reformed, and the other lake edge was in the process, and palm trees planted next to the lakes, and there were just all sorts of signs of progress, even to my untrained eye! It was a very exciting trip, so I wanted to pass that on.
