great looking place dick

1953! Jeez it’s still 5 years before I am born.

Great job Dick!

-- The longest journey begins with a single step.

‘53 is quite a bit before I was born. . . . heck I’m not sure my parents were born yet :-)

The house looks great. It’s great to see a house grow up with a family.

I love seeing the trees change and grow out front.

Nice work on a lifelong project!

Nice transformation, Dick. That’s the way to stay in the same neighborhood forever. I can tell you, the cost of construction materials is unbelievable. By the way Mr Trim, strained peaches still have that effect on me. ;o}

I also like watching that evergreen grow. Perhaps there is hope for my tiny 3”dia Bur Oak tree in my back yard.

Looking at your house photos I see the layout of the land the trees to me you just took photos of 3 different houses and try to fool us, is this a joke

A good friend of mine gave me those two Colorado Blue Spruce in 1969.

They were about 18” tall at the time. I gave them a lot of TLC.
