A picture depicting the aftermath of the development. The sand dunes and all its vegetation and habitat are now gone and all that is left are level lots for development. Its a barren scene but hauntingly beautiful in its own way. Poignant even.
The continuing work on the Ocean Reef Marina. I love the colours and the Heavy machinery shapes on this sunny day. The dust and exhaust add to the feel of the situation.
They're making a helluva racket on Richmond St. over the past few months, laying some sort of jumbo plumbing. They dig, lay pipe, put in temporary plates and asphalt, then return in a month to dig it up again and do some other kinda thing. I'm sure there's a method to the madness but when you're trying to listen or talk in a meeting, it can feel like giant sand worms are burrowing through the street - sometimes the whole house shakes!

This attaches to my Bobcat track loader. I removed it from an early 1950's Case tractor, then adapted it to the the track loader via a quick attachment plate and two quick release hydraulic hose fittings. There was a section with two hydraulic cylinders, where the attachment plate is now, that raised and lowered the unit when on the tractor. It is not needed now as the loader's lift arms do that job. The triangular frame serves as the base (outrigger) for stability when in use.
« Là ce n’est plus de la lévitation sociale, c’est de l’apesanteur cosmique : rien ne nous tient, rien ne nous retient, rien n’est relié à nous et nous ne sommes reliés à rien.

A little change of pace, a piece of machinery, as we leave St Germain de Calberte on what was to be our last day of walking the Chemin de Stevenson.
