One of my all time favorite things to do at work. Hands down.

For full effect you have to picture it. You have to see it in your head. Ready? Good.
Usually you are in a busy area, homes and businesses all around. Traffic and whatnot. You pull up to the entry road. If you are lucky, it is still wooded enough to feel secluded. The roads are still dirt and stone in parts. Some are closer to becoming actual roads and the really ripe ones are just waiting for the final topcoat of blacktop.
There aren’t any addresses yet, just lot numbers. Sometimes the lot signs are kind of fancy, well constructed.
And, wait for it, look down the quarter mile of straight road, all the way until it veers to the right.
Black stalks of cable just waiting to be put to work.
Time to get the walk wheel out and get to mapping…
Wooded? Not in my neck of the “woods.”
We try to make the new subdivisions as wooded as possible, which generally includes one stick looking tree in the park strips.
Yeah, I’m talking about a few months before the “parks” are installed. Quite a few of those trees will be gone by time the new section finished.
The price of expansion seems high sometimes.
