As I said before, I ran out of sand. When I got it before, I got the sand, I picked it up using my fathers dump trailer. As it turns out, the sand was to heavy and I ended up having to unload most of it by hand.
I really did not want to do that again. To be honest, I am getting tired and cold:) and I have a torn shoulder that is awaiting a second surgery.
So, anyway, I convinced my wife to separate with the extra bit of money so we could pay to have the company deliver it. It was absolutely worth it to me!!! Thank you so much HAT CREEK CONSTRUCTION. They gave me a great deal and have always been kind!
As a bonus I got to see some machinery at work. I love big machines!
I found this as I was walking back to my car after a fizzled sunset along the Hudson River. Trying to balance myself on a few small slippery rocks in Converses is no easy task, but I managed to do it without going for a dip. I wish I could have dragged it to shore and gotten it out of the water, but the tide was going out and the water was freezing cold :-(
A knocked down sign at the intersection of Old Karner Road and former Centerville Road. I think it's ironic, the concept of no dumping allowed in the Pine Bush, as garbage dumping is the primary activity that funds that Pine Bush Preserve and pollutes it too. andyarthur.org/photos/pine/nodumpinga.html
7 September 2017. This spot at the southern end of Moorefield Road is often used for dumping bags of rubbish.
Moorefield Road isn't a main road. But it's where many people go to visit our local Royal Mail Sorting Office. Many more take their kids to the nearby primary school. Or walk to and from Bruce Grove overground railway station.
Some use the small local businesses. Or visit the North London Community House.
As you turn into these streets, does your heart sing or sink? Is there ever a time when there is no fly-tipping? Other than the few hours (minutes?) after each clear-up.
On 7 September credit to the street cleaners for a day (or at least a few hours?) without dumping.

What it looked like when you climbed aboard this '85 Paystar from Seneca County. Note the work light mounted to the hydraulic reservoir. The mileage read 272104 at the time of this March, 2012 auction with the engine rebuilt at 254000. Photo courtesy of Auctions International.
Recyclable trash portraits by Muniz at the Rio De Jeneiro dump.
Muniz is inspired by a few of the workers discussion of the controversial Italian philosopher and politician, Niccolo Machiavelli. Muniz snaps a picture of Tiaõ who envisions himself as a modern day Machiavelli or fiery French revolutionary, Jean-Paul Marat. They stage the scene from The Death Of Marat, a painting by Marat’s compatriot Jacques-Louis David, who signed the death warrant for Louis XVI in 1793. Tiaõ lies across a discarded bathtub where Marat was apparently found dead. This photograph and numerous others were projected onto a studio floor and filled in with recyclable materials collected by the pickers photographed.
Brazilian artist Vik Muniz travels into the largest landfill in the world where 400 tons of recyclable material is collected by “pickers” and exchanged for money. 100% of proceeds from the screening are donated to the pickers.
What Muniz doesn’t anticipate is how well-adjusted the pickers are to the dirty work they do. “Picking” trumps prostitution and drug trading for the poor of Rio De Janeiro. The pickers association, lead by a young Afro-Latino named Tiaõ, lobbies for the rights of these workers. The solidarity among the pickers demonstrates their ability to overcome the challenges and dangers at Jardim Gramacho, a vast peninsula of sinking landfills and wafting methane and carbon dioxide gases. Scheduled to close in 2012, the “world’s largest trash city” is cracking at full capacity and has been leaking waste fluids into Guanabara Bay, Brazil.
I helped (read: tagged along) with Dean to help with eye examinations for families who live at/on/around the Puerto Vallarta garbage dump.

Can't blame this one on the camera's view window. Just got too close.
Old No. 58 was finally sold at auction in 1998. Its mate No. 7 (seen earlier in this set) would go the following year. There was one more of these 1976's, old No. 8 out of Wampsville which was parted out in 1992.
I redid the truck so it could fit two guys this time, and not just 1 really cramped person. By doing so, I had to extend the back end just a bit to make room for the doors, which do swing open.
Cool damp weather is in control as I arrive at the camp just before dark. Much of the leaves have already fallen but there are splashes of color here and there. October 12, 2012.

Below is the reply emailed by Haringey Veolia the Council's waste management contractor.
It's missing any indication of action by Veolia or Haringey Enforcement Team to discover:
( 1 ) Who dumped this rubbish?
( 2) How could this be prevented?

The local recycling dump is mighty popular on a Sunday. All those cars, all those engines, queuing away...
Digging on a late dump. The very top layer dated from May 1940. Labels on the bottles had rotted away, but for some reason other paper and card items were well preserved. We were pulling newspapers out with headlines about hitler and the nazis! For such a late tip it was quite interesting. Still can't beat a good earlier tip though lol
