157 SE Fallon Dr

We did a quick weekend camping for no reason at all and stopped in PSL to view the old homestead. Luckily it was empty and for rent so we stomped all around the place.
What a change.
What a mess.




















Most of the pines around the place have been cut down and the rest of the lot is grown up with weeds.You can't even see the canal.
It's been painted with pink trim.


























There are tile floors and the patio has been re screened so that one door is completely gone. We did find our names where we etched them into the concrete.












The back yard is fenced somewhat, but there is only a little walkway between the fence and the growth that totally hides the canal.
















The trees are mostly dead, the basketball goal is gone. The little oak I planted is huge and all over the power lines, the sycamore tree I planted looks scruffy, and the oleander I planted is still growing. Not very bushy, but still there.

West Virginia is being widened and all the homes that faced it have been bought out. It will become a major road connecting US 1 to PSL west of the turnpike. Here is a link detailing the very major project. It includes a bridge.
