IT STARTS WITH THE DIRT

There's a massive construction project going on not far from where I live.


The "town" of Prescott Valley has let a contract for the extension of North Viewpoint Drive and work is underway daily, in spite of the Corona-19 epidemic.

So huge machines have been grading the pathway to extend the street north from Manley Drive to connect with the northern stretch of the roadway.


I thought of this and the many home building projects going on all around me as I was reading the biography of one of the candidates for the Town Council.

He said he had moved here after retiring in California because he relished the "small town atmosphere".

This "small town" is currently struggling through an era of exponential growth.
