Santa Fe-style tract house
I don't really know what the style here is called but I call it Arizona style. So here are some sights in my neighborhood:
This is a car parked at the side of a house that you see when you come into the subdivision from one side. It's an interesting car but I'm sure tired of being greeted by it.
Here are S and E in front of typical landscaping. Lots of cacti, huh?
This is looking down the street. There are a LOT of cacti around here as well as Mesquite trees. The Mesquite trees are attractive but they drop stuff on the ground year 'round. Well, at least June, July, August, September, and October, the months we've been here. I'm kinda guessing it continues all year.
These two houses have lots of native landscaping. I especially like the second one.
Dh and I both love all the palm trees, (or "pom pom trees," if you ask the girls) and although this variety isn't a towering kind, we think it has the prettiest canopy:
Be it ever so humble, there's no place like home (note to self: MUST get to those weeds):
OK, I have to ask. Why is that one side of the street covered in rocks but not the other? Did they accidentally spill out of every yard down the block or is it on purpose (and on purpose only one one side)?

Tina,
ReplyDeleteBoth sides have that gravel out in front. No curbs or sidewalks on that street. It's a street that runs parallel to ours. I had the camera aimed toward that one side though. My street has curbs but no sidewalks.
