What's with the utility pole?

Several people have asked me about the utility pole sitting on a 6 foot tall mound of dirt in the middle of what will be our parking lot.

The pole supplies electricity to the home neighboring our property on the edge of the pond. Progress Energy will be burying an electric line to supply the campus. It will be connected to a transformer near where the existing pole stands. The underground line will then continue to the back of where our property is cleared, where it will be connected to the utility pole there. This effectively replaces the overhead line through our parking lot with an underground one, and then Progress Energy will remove the utility pole in this picture and we will be free to clear the mound it is standing on. This work is scheduled to occur in the next week.

Too bad the mound of dirt and pole will be gone soon - I was thinking Spirit rock and May pole!

Thanks for getting the ball rolling with your comments, Teresa. Rest assured the other phone pole will be around for some time, but ever since the embarrasing incident in Mount Wollaston we "good Christians" have tried to avoid too much Map pole festivities.
