My neighborhood has a lot of older retired people living here. We've been here 13 years, but lots of them were here long before us.
One old guy I used to see walking was very friendly, he bought the first house in the neighborhood when it was first developed.
To a certain degree, the neighborhoods around Dallas are older the closer you get to downtown. Roughly anyway.
But that guy moved on to the old folks home and his house was remodeled and sold.
They just started the demolition of a house across from mine out back on the other side of the alley. Jack hammers going like crazy. And I just walked by the front and the door was open. They are completely redoing the inside.
There is the same work on two more houses down around the corner.
I guess it makes me sad thinking about the change. Our crazy neighbor lady is getting pretty old and her house will probably be in the next year or two.
But I guess this is the same in lots of neighborhoods around the country.
