We purchased a "new" house in South Jordan at 11333 Brook-N-Lance Lane. Teri is 1.7 miles due east of it and Kristi is 1.3 miles due west. It's a full acre, so Alice will be able to keep her horses in the back yard. The house itself, however, is 30 years old and needs a LOT of work. Picture #1: Willow Creek is "supposed to" run through the southeast corner of the property, but it will take a bit of work to dig out the sandbars that are blocking it. If you look at the house and yard of our neighbor to the north (right), you will she a sharp contrast, but, as our real estate agent said, "We got a good deal on the property and the house for free." Picture #2: We brought in 16 dump truck loads of dirt and rocks to build up a low spot in the southeast corner. Michael spread it all while he was here. (Michael is in the orange and white "Bobcat" -- partially hidden by the tree.) The ugly bushes in the foreground that Alice is tugging at are now gone. We hope that our back yard will someday look as nice as the one across the creek. Picture #4: The kitchen was built in the 70s. It had dark wood, a bright yellow counter, and a drop-down ceiling. The bathrooms were at least as bad, but we've gutted them all. This is what we call "retirement."
