Bernina, is that where you live?
Nope, that's the place I grew up at down in Scottsdale, 1961+. The "old homestead" was torn down in 2004-5, and 2 homes built on the 1 1/2 acres, all the citrus was torn out, corrals and fences, pool,pond, all leveled. The only thing left is a pine tree that behind and in back of the 2 homes that are now there.
Lot's of pets buried on that property. It was not a happy place, though, so it was good that it was torn down. A family friend is a developer and bought the property 10 years ago, maybe? My dad actually sold out our (us kids) inheritance from gramps when he had the property quit claimed 3 times in 15 minutes at the recorder's office so no one knew the wiser. Developer friend filed bankruptcy within a year, lost the property. Dad died last August of dementia in Washington, basically living off social security, lost the home the developer friend put his name on......................all pretty messy and ridiculous.
