Golf Course beyond fence gives roomy feel to the yard
The whole yard is nicely landscaped with drip irrigation.



Looking North down the Par 3 7th Fairway

We get maybe one ball a month on edge of yard. Keep as souvenir or toss in box under laundry tub in garage!
 




Evening on the patio



Umbrella and chairs on paver patio





Par 3 Fairway 7th green about 300 ft away
 



Golfers are more concerned about where their balls landed.
We have not felt there were privacy issues.




Roof mounted Solar PV system generates 8.3kW
This system generates about 900Kw a month
View 18 month graph
 



Solar supplies the needs of the house and the rest goes out to the grid.
Data shows it generates nearly a megawatt a year.
We feel that it is the right thing to do to harvest some of the abundant sunlight.
 



Unusual large pencil tree
 



Pool looking Northeast




Solar Pool Water Heater 2022
An automatic valve directs water to this system around 11AM and extends the swimming season by several months. There is so much free energy from the sun here that we felt "why not"!
 



 Spectacular sunset
 




Gas BBQ on North side of the house



A spectacular sunrise
