SATURDAY REPORT

 

THEY HAVE REALLY HAD A BUSY WEEK WORKING ON GETTING THE LAND  READY FOR THE NEW HOUSING DEVELOPMENT IN MAQUOKETA, ON THE CORNER OF WESTERN AVENUE AND WEST SUMMIT, WHICH WAS ONCE  PART OF THE BIG TUBBS APPLE ORCHARD.    TO THE LEFT STOOD A HOME AND HUNDREDS OF TREES HAVE BEEN TAKEN OUT BEHIND THE MIDDLE TREE AND TO THE NORTH FOR ABOUT 2 BLOCKS.    ON THIS BIG PARCEL, A MONTICELLO PERSON OR FIRM WILL SELL LOTS OR BUILD HOMES.    CLOSE TO 30 MODERATELY PRICED HOMES.     A STREET, CURBS AND GUTTERS AND WATER AND SEWER PIPES COME FIRST.

DECIDED TO GO FOR DINNER LAST NIGHGT AT BLUFF  LAKE, BUT

SINCE THEY WERE SO BUSY, AND ONLY PARKING SPACES OPEN WERE UP

THE HILL (TOO MUCH OF A WALK FOR US) WE DECIDED TO COME

BACK ANOTHER TIME AND SEE THE NEW LOOK AND EXPANSION.

WOULD BE NICE OF BLUFF LAKE HAD A GOLF CART TO TAKE OLD FOLKS

LIKE US DOWN AND  UP THE HILL TO THE FRONT DOOR.

SO..HEARD THERE WAS A NEW MEXICAN RESTAURANT IN

WYOMING AND HEADED THAT WAY ON HIWAY 136.

IT IS ON THE CORNER, DOWNTOWN, AND TWO BUILDINGS

REMODELED TO ESTABLISH IT.   OPENED LAST THANKSGIVING.
