They started without me!

Drilling equipment moving down the street to the location of the next tower foundation.

Note how they hold the low hanging wires above the machine while it creeps beneath.

This rebar cage will be inserted into the hole before pouring the concrete for the foundation.

This was an older house, built in the 1930's from reclaimed lumber.

If you forget to focus, it can be quite artistic!

Wait! That's the wrong place!

It was such a nice house, it is a shame to see it destroyed.

I went to get a cup of coffee and missed the garage getting torn down. Couldn't have been 5 minutes.

When he slams that bucket down it shakes my house.

This machine is so heavy the whole horizon tipped!

They have been very thorough. They even swept the street.

The power of this thing is incredible.

Gentle, you might break it!

They sprayed the rubble as they shoveled it to keep the dust down.

I went out and measured these. They are 30, 35, 45 & 50 feet in length. So the finished tower will be 160 feet in height.

Next time, please just come in the front door!

All that was left at the end of the daywas a little rubble in the cellar hole.

Funny, I used to work for ADT. I think this house needs better securing at the moment.

Pow!

It was tight work, they had to watch that they didn't bump the existing tower.

We're having an "Open House" today!

Thos elines will be going in the next phase.

The next morning he went right down there to get the floor out.

A tanker truck fills the frack tank with water. It took 3 or 4 (I lost count) tankers to fill the frack tank. The water in the tank is pumped into the hole during drilling to help keep the walls from collapsing.

The front steps are next.

I'll just dump it in the basement.

The planters and front stairs went next.

This thing picks up concrete like it is made of styrofoam.

There's the front porch!

Yikes!

Anyone need a wall?

It's like watching a giant monster eat a house.

You can see how low the wire has drooped as the pull it back off the towers and roll it up.

Taking a munch out of the house.

Garage is reduced to a pile of rubble.

Grabbing the chimney.

Going!

At the end of that first day we had a traprock pad that the big machines could roll on.

Taking a taste of the roof!

Lived across from it for 20 years and this is the first time I am seeing the inside!

This tree is annoying me!

Had to see what it looked like inside. I was tempted to crawl through, but decided against it.

Anyone need half a house?
