Another Brick In The Wall
By early next month, workers expect to finish rebuilding the first phase of the community’s perimeter wall stretching from near the intersection of Pima Road and Dixileta Drive toward the main entrance. Workers then plan to start work on the wall leading up to and north of the main gates and complete it by the end of the year. This work will include the gate host building, entry signs, gate pillars and the adobe section under the mailboxes.

“The whole front entry is going to look brand spanking new and impressive,” said Steve Chudyk of the HOA Board of Directors.

The HOA created a long-term perimeter wall replacement strategy plan. One of the goals is to ensure the entire perimeter wall appears uniform and consistent in color while maintaining its unique, original character.

Check out these pictures of the wall work.

For The Birds

"I have been trying to create some magic by capturing hummingbirds in our yard," Laurel said. "I wanted something different and hopefully more artistic. I wanted to push my creativity a bit. My aim was to capture more of their glowing heads and gorgets in the endless acrobatic positions they so effortlessly achieve while showing off their magnificent colors."

She added, "It's been an absolute joy shooting these images and I intend to continue especially as the migrants begin to appear from colder climes."  

Laurel calls this series of photos "Rejoice."

"I feel it's a good reminder to us all in these challenging times that there is beauty, lightness and joy everywhere as long as our hearts are open to the experience."
Happy Halloween!
