I paused at my turn around point because the view was so extraordinary with the Sandia Mountains standing majestically to the East.  I was thinking of the words to say to express how important the mountain is to the city, its people and the beat of life here.<\/p>\n<p>As my gaze lowered, I realized that a project that had been hidden from view for so long by a high fence was now visible from where I was standing.  It was a corner property of perhaps 5 or more acres, now well graded and looking as if it was ready to be turned into a park.<\/p>\n<p>Across the street, a couple were on their patio and I asked them if in fact the tract of land was to become a much needed park for that area of town.  Their response stunned me as I was told that a greedy developer had purchased the parcel of land upon which suburban junk had been thrown for $300,000.00 (about what an acre would be in that area), had spent 18 months &#8220;cleaning&#8221; the property and was intending to build 10 homes.<\/p>\n<p>They also disclosed that if you looked at the soil, the junk had actually been shredded and buried and that the homes would be built on the potentially toxic land.<\/p>\n<p>Why doesn&#8217;t someone, like an ecoactivist, get some independent soil testing done, find out what the real soil quality is and sue the developer if there is a &#8220;cover up&#8221;.  The money from the suit could then be used to have the soil thoroughly cleaned or correctly disposed of and the property turned into a park that people for generations to come would enjoy.<\/p>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;\" class=\"sharethis-inline-share-buttons\" ><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My workouts revolve around P90X, but in the late afternoon on Sunday, I go for a good run.
