Scrapers!

I feel like we've been waiting all winter for some real road work behind the house. The concrete drain was a nice suprise, however not the dirt moving we'd been expecting. But today, we finally got to see some work on the road bed. Three scrapers, two bulldozers, and an excavator were moving tons of dirt all day. The scrapers moved dirt from one area and dumped it on top of the concrete drain and gravel. The excavator moved dirt all day too, but I'm not really sure of it's purpose yet. It just moved a pile of dirt and made another pile right next to the old pile. Hmmm. However, it was very close and he waved at the boys. :)

These first couple are the boys trying to fill Daddy's shoes. :)















This picture is on the back patio.

You can barely see the yellow of a scraper between the two trees and behind the pines.

Just gives you a perspective of how close/far the work is. :)
