Spring must be coming, because the infrastructure crews are warming up their equipment and tearing up our neighborhood streets to put in that long-needed new water main.<br /><br />Here's one of the operators using a remote-controlled fill-tamping robot as it packs down the CR6 stone mix they're using to fill a newly cut trench.<br /><br />Looking forward to everyone's images this week - share!<br> </p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Laur Posted March 2, 2016 Author Share Posted March 2, 2016 <p>Alas, the utility marking company missed spray painting the location of a gas line, and the crew's excavator hooked a 3/4" gas line right outside our door ... and much mayhem ensued. In rolled an army of gas utility guys, and fire trucks from multiple local stations, just in case. </p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Laur Posted March 2, 2016 Author Share Posted March 2, 2016 <p>The pipe, yanked right out of the ground and spewing an amazing amount of natural gas, had to be shut down, electrically grounded and monitored, and otherwise settled down from being truly alarming. All's well that ends well.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Currie Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 <p>On our recent trip to Belize we took an afternoot trip to neighboring Guatamala to tour Tikal. For those unfamiliar with this, it's one of the great ancient Mayan cities, partially excavated from the jungle after abandonment a bit over a millennium ago. It's a potent place.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew Currie Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 <p>Rather poor, corrupt and populous compared to Belize, Guatemala is still far from the worst place around, and has considerable charm.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
