First, a close look at the steady flow of powder into one of the holes...this time there are about 90 holes at 45 feet deep! After this shot the crew will be able to work all the way through that rock wall with the excavator buckets and dozer blades.

With the new Blaster, things seem just a little different every time...be patient, not much happens for the first minute.

Today is the one-year anniversary of this thread. IF I didn't miss putting all of them in the correct folder, there are 1,048 pics/videos so far.

No shots till next Monday (2 diff places) so here's some random stuff. They're installing storm drain piping that will lead to the detainment pond:

They're also working on the foundation base for the retaining wall that goes along the Lowe's site near the freeway. This base requires a specified width and depth of material no larger than 4" and they use this angled frame to sift the larger material off the top and a front bucket gathers the good stuff from under the frame and adds it to a stockpile.

The south end of the rock wall is slowly disappearing, excavator pulling down blocks and a hammer dealing with many that were pushed down from the other side.

Probably the last vid from the car lot, had to rely on a cell call for notice of the shot timing and started the camera a tad late and the sightline is not too good.

They parked an excavator blocking my view at the last minute and I barely had time to move before the shot...hence: no Before pic!

Another shot today working on the rock wall, most of the rubble moves to this side but the Inside pics show how much will have to be hauled around.
