Clearing around the park

We arrived in the park on Thursday, November 15th and in the last week lots has been happening with the construction around the park.  The machines have been starting around 6:30 am and quitting around 5:30 pm and then there is a chainsaw running until it’s dark.  Needless to say it has been noisy and incredibly dusty when the wind is blowing from the north….which it always does. So far they have been working intensively in the north section of the development but they’ll end up behind us again sooner or later.

It was a holiday weekend….Revolution Day and the machines quit on Saturday afternoon and weren’t to start work again until Tuesday morning …..bueno!  However on Sunday morning bright and early a dozer started clearing right beside us on the south side.  A separate lot being cleared.  Great.

You can see him in the corner pushing all the trees down.

This is now (Wednesday afternoon) and he’s still out there pushing things around creating lots of dust for the condos south of us.  In the end there is still a small patch of trees and brush next to the park straight ahead of us on the southwest corner of the park towards the street.  This is another small lot that is privately owned and it isn’t being cleared at this point.

So….here is Eric’s new view looking towards the beach and the towers that line it.

Still a bit dusty out there.   Eric likes the view and if they’d just plant it all to bermuda grass and leave it this way it’d be lovely but that’s not going to happen.  The rumour is that they are just clearing so the lot will be more salable…who knows.

Northeast corner of the RV park and you can see the machines running back and forth.  There 5 graders, 1 compacter, water trucks, backhoes and who knows how many dump trucks.

If they keep water on it and the wind isn’t blowing too much it’s not too bad.

Out behind us where they haven’t started working.

To be continued…..
