Gotcha Ya

Walked past this excavator on the way home from work. This land belongs to a technical school by the name of NAIT (Northern Alberta Institue of Technology). They had torn down a building and wer clearing the land. The operator had this rock and was dropping it in an attempt to break it. After a few tries he succeeded. I am not sure what is going to go up here but there is a lot of constructioin going on in this area with the expansion of the Light Rail Transit
I am going to apologize now If over the next few days I don not have a chance to view all of your pictures as My wife and I are working on a special project for this weekend. I will still post a picture everyday and I will try to respond to all of your comments
That would have been interesting to watch, love those trees.

Were you there when it dropped..that must've been quite a noise I imagine.
construction everywhere here too. extension of an underground subway line. (this is in the city of Toronto)..road repairs everywhere..in ou r immediate area not only are they widening the roads for the traffic that will soon be so much heavier when the new extension of a highway (now in progress) which will then go as far as where we live.,will be finished..so that'll be nice for us. in your case I hope they save the trees. I'm always so sad when they have to be removed.

Those big machines truly fascinate me in the way that they make such big things seem like nothing. Good shot.
