The overcast and unappealing light was not a surprise on my return trip from Oregon via Seattle in March. In fact, I barely shot a thing while waiting for the eastbound Empire Builder at King Street Station but the kid in me still has a hard time passing up heavy equipment at work. (3-10-2015)

Just a few bottles from the '30s I dug up recently. The Guelph 5¢ G.B.E. quart has a chip and some pings along the top etc but from what I gather this bottle is rare so I'm keeping it. The rest of the bottles are okay and are now soaking in soapy water.

After a week of extreme mud and mess, the footings have been excavated.

Seems there's enough clay to open a pottery!

Roll on Monday when the concrete arrives.

 

News Flash!

While the gale has been blowing, the rain torrential and the night as black as coal, my dog fell down the newly dug footings for our extension.

 

Down into a huge water filled trench of mud and clay.

Guesse who had to scramble in to lift her out??? Not my husband!

The poor wee dog was trembling and up to her belly in freezing water. Both dog and I were in dire need of a hot bath and sympathy!!

Noah and Cody dug for hours. I like the depth of field here...comes from shooting with my telephoto lens from my viewpoint flat on my belly on a beach blanket!

- for cables so I can control the rig from the relative warmth of the cabin next door.

Be careful what you wish for, we got the big snow storm that I wanted and a bit more... 21 inches worth! For the first time in 27 years I missed a shift because of weather. Good thing, it snowed harder this afternoon than I can remember including the blizzard of '93. I would be stranded at the tower... without beer :-)

 

This was after the 2nd shoveling !

This was taken at Nash Point yesterday - I've no idea what the man was looking for but in my imagination thought it might be gold!!!

Maya is digging again near the river:)

Pendleton, Indiana (01-28-09) The snow storm that swept across Indiana and much of the Midwest Tuesday evening and Wednesday morning left Pendleton, as well as the rest of Indiana, digging out much of Wednesday.

Many businesses and all of the area schools were closed because of the road conditions. Devon Price and George Price, for the Pendleton-Gazette, were out Wednesday morning and captured what the snow storm left behind.

Work continues this year on the University Link light rail tunnels. This photo shows the gantry cars lined up and connected to the tunnel boring machine that is being re-assembled to dig the northbound tunnel between Capitol Hill and downtown Seattle. The gantry cars carry several items including the electrical transformer for the TBM, grout tanks and pumps and utility piping. U-Link tunneling will be completed in 2012 with passenger service expected in 2016.

Jamie,, you getting this?;~))

This echidna was busy trying to protect itself from us by digging into the clay , under a fallen tree .

The photo lets us see the line outlining the spine area .. this 'valley' is seen because both sides of the echidna are lifted up & out, to let those very powerful 'spade-tipped' legs & feet dig freely , while acting as a shield.

Work to build a permanent Sounder train station in Tukwila includes construction of a new parking lot by contractor Absher Construction; the parking lot should open in December. New train platforms nearby are being built in phases to allow uninterrupted passenger service. The project is slated for completion next spring.
