Over the Bridge & Taco Time

Good News! This Saturday I ventured taking Ironwood north to the 60. The new bridge is up and running. It looks like there is still some construction happening but it was thrilling to see the light at Guadalupe and to actually drive up and over the wash.
My first drive over the new bridge on Ironwood.

The new lights at Guadalupe and Ironwood.
As of last weekend Queen Creek now has a Taco Bell / Long John Silvers. The drive through was so packed that I had to get out of line. I'll have my Chalupa once it slows down a bit.
Yo Quero Taco Bell! The new Taco Bell at Ocotillo and Rittenhouse.
A few more frames popping up around the town....
This structure just popped up on Ocotillo near the developing Walmart center.
A view from my car of a new sign at the corner of Ironwood and Ocotillo at the Links Golf Course. It is touting that we are getting a Fresh and Easy. I guess the Links is going away soon.

Corner of Ironwood and Ocotillo caddy corner to the links. Not long ago you had to dodge chickens on this corner.

That's all for this week. As you know the views here in Queen Creek change daily and my photos are just the tip of the iceberg. I just saw new signs this week On Ironwood and Ocotillo that Fulton homes is building THREE new communities. You may have noticed the great walls of Queen Creek where they are getting ready to build. So triple the pleasure and triple the traffic. Let's hope our taxes are lowered as the value of the existing homes here go lower and lower.

See you in Monday morning traffic. Watch out for orange cones!
