This is inground infrastructure work that has to done in order to widen 17th by 2 lanes, it was supposed to start last week. These guys are the exposure crew and every intersection gets done, expose, relocate, bury and temporary ashphalt. We've been watching this crew get closer every 3 days and it looks like a 5 day ordeal is upon us. The detour is really efficient but these morons just need to find a way of screwing things up so that they can make life difficult, it justifies their honking, swearing and racial slurs. Its us evil residents that are the problem not them.

My daughter is tuff no doubt about that, she would have ran out of the hospital if her foot wasn't so sore. She went right back to the horses though.

Have a good day everyone, looks like it is going to be a nice one.

Sounds like your daughters foot might be sore for awhile but glad to hear nothing broken Colin. It's a sunless day here with rain falling at the moment and likely for the rest of the day..

I just bought another Super Duty this morning, it`s never been winter driven.
I think that I might be tempted to take a 5 day vacation Perry, that road construction sounds like quite the ordeal.

Thanks Gerry but I have been quite slack lately.
Have a good weekend Ian, hope you have this weekend off.

Good to hear she`s Ford tuff Colin!
It`s a nice day, just a little cloudy at times today but I don`t mind.
No rain here John, it`s mostly sunny with a gentle breeze.
I was going to spray for dandelions Grant but the chemical I was going to use isn`t registered for lawns, it could be harmful to my two dogs.

Stepped on by a horse and gets right back on, good girl.

Don't mind the construction, just po'd at the morons that are making their own detour route. CPS was out this morning to reassure us that theres nothing they can do.

New truck is a good shade of Ford blue, must be fun for mud boggin.

I don`t think that the CPS is doing their job but what do I know.
Likely I would need different tires for mud.

Its a long weekend and directing traffic into the detour would be actual work, such a thing would be prohibited or not in line with their pay scale.

Ice cream time, still waiting for Frankie to show up to get her licks in.
Its supposed to hit 27 on Tuesday, thinking about taking in a hike tomorrow up in the Lake Louise area.

It was nice here for most of the day, some showers came through around supper time but didn't amount to much. Got the garden rototilled and mostly planted, need to wait a few days for some to dry up before we plant the rest. Got the motorcycles out and have them ready for the road, just need to a clean off the winter dust. Deck repairs on the list for tomorrow.

Have a good evening everyone.
