This story was a little late, and is a little long but I hope you will enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it.

Shady Acres.

3 years ago

Hello folks, welcome to Shady Acres the newest upscale planned residential golf community from Triond development.   We are building 666 single family homes 6 parks 2 recreation centers complete with fully equipped exercise rooms, Olympic size pools with water slides, high dives, and lap lanes.  A media center stocked with the latest video games and a 75 inch high definition television.  There is a guest hotel with a 5 star restaurant, the head Chef is Gringo Perry the winner of Iron Chef Europe and a master of Fillet Mignon.  We have a fully stocked supermarket that will deliver your groceries to your home if you request.  Our movie theater runs the latest films and thanks to a special arrangement with George Lucas has the latest sound equipment from Skywalker sound and light.  You will find our theater has a full dinner menu in addition to the typical movie theater fare.  Our lots begin at 1 million dollars and although we will work with our residents to build whatever their hearts desire we ask that homes in the family area be a minimum of 4500 square feet.  In our adult living area we ask that homes be built to a minimum of 2500 square feet.

The adult community is 222 residences lining our PGA quality Golf Course there are 100 high end zero maintenance duplexes inter mixed with 122 available custom lots.  There are several exteriors because we wanted to avoid the cookie cutter look of so many of these communities.  The interiors are completely customizable we have everything from travertine floors and marble counters to super plush carpets if that is what you prefer.  All landscaping is handled by our in community landscaping team.  They will work with you on designing a yard that meets our very high standards.  Robert Puckett is our head landscaper you will find him and his wife Shelly very pleasant to deal with.  Shelly publishes our local gazette and both live on the property so you will have access to them anytime you need them. 

So Mr. Crerand does this seem like the kind of place you would like to live?

“Well son, you’ve been blabbing on for 10 minutes and I haven’t been able to ask a single question yet.” Said David Crerand from behind his white beard and disarming smile.

    You absolute bastid! I reckon the explosion took out the zombies and their bodies shielded me from the fire….so yeah, I lived.

    Thanks for including me in the muddled madness that is your imagination.

    It couldn’t happen without zombies, but so many fail to realize this.

    LMAO – that was great. I felt sad at first when Cass died, but then almost everyone died. Some great laugh out loud moments there too. One particularly (sorry Bo) was ‘but Bo was an idiot’ and when he screamed like a 280 pound girl. Poor Bo, you really gave it to him – but he was heroic :-)

    That was great fun.

    :-) So Brad O’Neill .. do I come back to life and learn how to act like a normal human being?

    This was a wacky tale Bradley. You should ventrue into writing a book, and i could provide you with a title. The Zanny Provocative Tales Of The Insane…..by Brad ONeill…. It would surely be a best seller, and provide Stephen King with some competition….Well done, and what a tale.

  • hfj on Apr 7, 2010

    Oh yea, and thanks for excluding me from the community since i’m the only “golfer” out of the whole wacky crew…haha
