Shaganappi Trail North Extension Underway

Tuesday, August 23rd, 2011

Shaganappi Trail NW Extension

Kinwood Communities, as part of its develpment requirements for the next phase of Sherwood, will be building four lanes on Shaganappi Trail from where it currently ends, just north of Stoney Trail, to approximately 200 metres north of Sherwood Gate.

Genesis Land Development Corporation is planning to build the two east lanes from that point north to Sage Hill Boulevard 2011/2012 providing an alternate access route for the communities of  Sage Hill, Kincora and Evanston.

The existing temporary access off Shaganappi Trail into Sherwood may be closed to public traffic once Shaganappi Trail is extended past this point.  It will remain open as an emergency access only until 2012 when the permanent access into Sherwood via Sherwood Gate/Sherwood Boulevard is provided.

 

Moving?! Don’t rely on friends to hold furniture to the roof of your car!!!

Wednesday, August 10th, 2011

As clever as we  can be; some days I suppose we all fall short.  This is a picture I took while on my way home the other day.  It was taken with my phone and for obvious reasons I was keeping a relatively safe distance behind them.  So after cropping it down, zooming in, and smudging out the license plate I thought I would share it with you!   To be clear, the photo is of people moving their coffee table.  It is on the roof of the car and there are 4 men inside the car each holding onto one of the table legs with an arm (including the driver).  It is not secured to the vehicle at all except by the strength of their own grips.  They did  thoughtfully protect  the roof of the car with a few hoodies underneath the table however.  I don’t think I so say anything more about it!

Moving and don't have or know anyone who has a truck?

Does everyone have a leg? Let's go!

  So, instead… I will remind all of you that if you buy or sell your home through the CorleyTeam, we will provide you with the use of our Brokerage Moving Truck for FREE!  Automatic transmission, moving blankets and bungees, easy access ramp…to make your move a breeze!
