Our little village has two loops. On Friday morning the roadwork crew were working on the other loop for most of the day. I could hear them in the distance. Then mid afternoon I looked out to see them headed my way. The little convoy looked like they were lining up my back door.
They just had the final application of seal to apply. I know you can see a man having a little sit but, believe me, a few minutes later it was all hands on deck. To be honest, I think those men work hard and deserve a little rest now and then.
The attention to detail was surprising
Every man has a job
Nearly finished
It's raining today, so no "after" photo just yet.
I must say it is looking good.
ReplyDeleteI agree, Margaret. It's very impressive.
DeleteYour photos capture the process. Nothing smoother than a newly surfaced road.
ReplyDeleteYes, it definitely feels so much smoother!
DeleteThey sure know what they are doing!
ReplyDeleteYour retirement community looks so nice, Pauline.
It's a lovely community to be part of, Ellen. I'm very grateful to be here.
DeleteAs you say there is great attention to detail with big machinery in confined roads. It amazes me. I'm loong forward to the final pictures.
ReplyDeleteI have a lot of respect for our road-working gangs. A friend of mine once did that and he said wearing all the safety gear in summer is SO hot, and yet they still manage to keep going. It really is jolly hard work :)
ReplyDeleteThe machine operators seemed very skillful, I really enjoyed watching the process.
ReplyDeleteI have frequent "little sits"...and I don't exert nearly as much energy as those fellows do. :)
ReplyDeleteHaha. Me too, Lee. We're allowed at our age, aren't we?
DeleteLooks good. Happy Sunday my friend. Hugs.

Thanks. Sorry, I can't return the visit. My computer defender identifies your blog as a harmful site.
DeleteIt looks good. That is some hot work.
ReplyDeleteLuckily for the guys, Michelle, the weather was just perfect. The sun was shining but it's not yet hot here.
ReplyDeletePauline...I hope you get a chance to read my response to your comment on my last post! :)
ReplyDeleteThey did a great job Pauline. Looks lovely!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful blog
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to hear that they did a good job.
ReplyDeleteI would say they deserve a break, too....I bet at points it is everybody at top speed...
ReplyDeleteHi Pauline, I am so happy to see that you are still blogging. I miss blogging for fun. The only reason I stopped was because I couldn't upload pictures the easy way anymore. I hope you are doing well.
ReplyDeleteSending good vibes your way.
Love, JarieLyn in Las Vegas
