That's hilarious. I recently showed a home on "Quiet Plain". The home was on the main street of the neighborhood, a very busy street with a major highway one street over & a bus stop on the island in the middle. I thought to myself, are you serious? There ain't nothing quiet about this plain. What an oxy-moron.
Too Funny! You want to see goofy community (subdivision) names? Come to Wisconsin, my friend! Crystal Ponds has no ponds- it has a water retention pit. Riverwoods- no river, no woods. You get the idea!
As far as planting trees that aren't indigenous to a specific area and need excessive water... that's just plain dumb. By the way, Jim, I like your blog and will subscribe to it shortly!
What is in a name? It seems too many names are copied from projects that are successful. I am not sure why people can not be more original. We see these all over. In Wisconsin we have Lone Oak, with more than one oak and a lot of pines. Deer Crossing where they leveled all the woods and chased the wildlfie away. They should maybe call it deer have crossed. I live on Wild Rose Court. I have been here for 7 years and I have yet to see a wild rose. I do think it is easy to spell. I think that is inportant when buying a home. It does sound better than, the block the farmer still grows corn. I used to live on Sea Farer Pass. Most people thought that was a place sailors went to pick up women. No one could spell that one.
Sea Farer Pass! You gotta love it! We build in a community called Fall's Crossing (in Grafton) and Hunter's Crossing (Grafton, too) was a place we built in a few years back. I didn't see any hunters out there.
