As mentioned a couple of times, our street, as lovely as it is (and is really *IS*), is one street of seven in our subdivision, with none of the other streets ever being developed, leaving nothing but empty, graded, ready for construction lots for the last couple of decades. Weird, but it is what it is.
As I mentioned earlier this weekend, because of that, there’s nothing but dirt and weeds on the other side of our back wall, so I started hanging extra Christmas lights on the other side of the back wall. Theoretically I guess that would be in someone else’s yard if they ever built a house on that lot, but they haven’t, so I put lights up that can be seen when you come off of the main street into the back way into the subdivision.
Tonight I walked the two blocks down to the corner where the back entrance is and looked back toward the line of back yard walls on our street. Guess which house is ours!
I think it looks great. As I’ve said, next year I want to extend it out about twenty feet to both sides along the brick wall, and add a couple more loops below these. It will be amazing!
