ReplyDeleteWhat did you do????
ReplyDeleteFascinating. And just the other day they started a new twin home down the street from us using that same way of bringing concrete mix from a truck to it's destination. I'd not seen that before. Works pretty slick!
In his frustration he's probably thinking, "must you document this?"
ReplyDeleteInteresting photo story VP.
Well, oops!
ReplyDeleteGosh!
ReplyDeleteI guess that will take some time....
I had to laugh. I guess they didn't want that documented, did they? And by the way, there are some nice reflections in the bottom of the canal!
ReplyDelete@ tapirgal - He knew I was there taking pictures... This crash was a minor glitch quickly fixed.
ReplyDeleteSince the start of the works everybody on site has been very patient and helpful with my efforts.
Great to see. I have a thing for construction site photos.
ReplyDeleteAlmost ready? Oops.
ReplyDeleteMaybe that cement wasn't quite mixed.
Oops. But how exciting to see this part of the canal so close to finished.
ReplyDeleteLOL! What have you done? :-)
ReplyDeleteOh no! Maybe they were looking for someone to blame!
ReplyDeleteYou mean that you did something wrong?!How could you:)
ReplyDeleteWere they trying to say that the problems were because of you?
ReplyDeleteHmmm...
The first 3 photos I was thinking, how lucky you are they let you watch them. Lots of workers get nervous when you watch them work.
ReplyDeleteThen the last picture--maybe it IS bad luck to be closely watched.
Great documentation! Fun to see how things progress.
As long as they didn't call the carabinieri, you're fine.
ReplyDeleteUh oh! Maybe he's trying to blame it one you :)
ReplyDeleteHe probably wanted to ask you not to show anything about the error, whatever it was. :)
ReplyDeleteWhen you shoot things you shoot them down. LOL MB
