Could you imagine living there?

Old home,possibly older then my mom.notice the road as the pasture has mounds?that meant it was a orange grove.old topos and even Google Earth show it had groves as recent as the early 2000s. I could go to the county Web page and see its age.

Since the groves have been removed, I'd say either the trees weren't bearing the way they had.... or.... raising cattle is more profitable.

That is a classified navy topo. If you know where to look and what was what .compare 80 years later

[AirDancer]

Comparison of the two are rather startling

Ah ,I was off.here is the home .there are two shown.it think the west or left one is it..View attachment 7833

The east home may be what is called Peterson grove at the time he wasNT here as I can know,he had groves in town and the navy took his during the navy base build up.what is miracle mile now was his groves.

 

[jasonc]

Confirmation via Google Earth show's it.the right while the home isn't there is Petersons grove where product was sold.

 

[AirDancer]

Ah, okay.

That is purple it's faded.the west side unless he painted it again was yellow.the two story guest home with garage isn't shown.the home if I remember was built in 24

 

[AirDancer]

That's purple?

Stucco, some of these are wood frame and stucco and others arent.this is. I will look up the history of this home via the tax appraisal office.the topo is after the fact of looking for the ranch home.I found two other homes.I also ,but I know they are wood bridges ,saw the wooden bridges built by the USN.cherry ln,shown,is on the Google Earth image 3rd st.it's named cherry ln for those cherry farms.from lateral a east to its end at 58 that was cherry farms.I found a home with the sign cherry ln one a route a few days ago.I think it was on tropical ave,just west of that road with canopies. People collect these telics.I bet when big blue comes down or is gutted .I will find pieces of her at homes.
