Sewer Project-Wow

   Wasn't sure what to expect-how big a mess-well they are digging up our property on both sides-on the right they have no property to dig-so on ours, to the left those neighbors do not have much property either and they were crying about the mess-so Larry said just do it on ours.

This is a path down to the lake that they started putting rock down


I am hoping new grass will be put down when they are finished-actually if we had the money this would be the time to change over to all rock



Larry is in the blue shirt talking with the guys








Geese swimming by-I bet they are wondering what all the noise is about  We are seeing very few baby geese or ducks-I am thinking all this rain and cold took allot of them



an hour or so after these photos


This turned out a little blurry-on top of this ledge is several more lunch boxes-my car is parked up on top here



Wow


This young gentleman is really nice-he is some sort of boss of this project

  2. That's a big deal! We have a water pipe, sewer pipe, and storm water pipe renovation for three years in this village! Terrible renovation! The yards have been dug up. The roads have only been deep mounds. Before that, there was a fiber optic renovation here that lasted a year. I hope nothing more is done here!

  4. I had a friend who needed a new sewer line because hers burst. They dug up the entire side of her property and, when finished, just covered the ground back and left. She had to plant her own grass, but opted for sod, since she felt it would be cheaper in the long run. I sincerely hope that doesn't happen with you.

  5. It’s a mess for sure, but where there are no sewers next to a lake, it’s necessary. The lake will eventually die if sewage isn’t diverted away from the water. It’s another kind of infrastructure that needs our attention for the health of the lake and future generations.

  6. Good morning! Hope all is well at the lake today! While looking at your photos, this thought came to me. "There never was an ill wind that didn't blow some good." (my mom) You may end up with a spectacular walkway down to the lake.

  7. Dearie me! What an upheaval! I also hope they are going to put your grass back for you. Certainly the Finished project will be a great improvement but meanwhile you have to put up with the mess! All the fuss has probably deterred the geese and ducks from laying. Keep well. Amanda x

    1. It is quite the mess for now but it will fine when finished I think. we had a very cold and wet april and may so think many of the birds lost their babies or they didn't hatch

  8. Messy for sure, all that soil and rock about the place. It will look pretty when it is all finished and replanted.

  9. It does look like one big mess right now! My son had new sewers put in his French place - his friend took photos and he says it looks better then it did before - hope yours is the same! Hugs, Chrisx

    1. the crew has been really nice, we let them use their heavy equipment on our property and return they just dug out a deep tree stump, helping us with some little things, and bringing us rock for our little road down to the lake-for atv's and Larry's Snapper
