After a short general meeting today, we headed up to the site of our new neighborhood for a guided tour with the construction superintendent and Katie McCamant of Cohousing Partners. The rain and even a few flakes of snow didn't deter some of us from getting real muddy. What a grand sight to see retaining walls taking shape. Most impressive to us was the incredible effort being taken to contain, capture and send the rainwater down into the storm drainage system. No construction run-off is getting anywhere close to "our" creek...Wolf Creek.

Well it happened today...a parade of concrete mixers arrived at Wolf Creek Village and made the first pour for the retaining walls for one of the roads. Yes, our new neighborhood is under construction, and we are all pretty excited!

On this absolutely beautiful fall day in Grass Valley, a few of us took a walk at the nearby Empire Mine State Park. Later on we decided to visit the construction site at Wolf Creek. Here are a few pictures.

So pleased for all! Wish we could be there to celebrate. Look forward to seeing those workers on the site.

Well,the wait is over! Wolf Creek Village will be a reality. The difficult lending environment tested the patience of all concerned, but building will begin as soon as possible. Champagne and Martinelli corks are popping....heavy equipment is arriving and Wolf Creek Lodge (which is Phase I of the neighborhood) will be taking shape very soon. How exciting for all of us!
