Here are a few photos of what is going on with the power line construction. Right now they are building roads to access the structures and pads for them to be built on. These photos show what was going on Friday afternoon where they were installing a culvert in the road to one of the towers.
The job is finally starting to move along fairly well. It isn't as much fun to do this as it is to do rehabilitation on fires because things do not move as fast. There are lots of times when changes need to be made but they have to go through an approval process where in the rehab world you have to make the call on the spot and go on. This is a little different for me because of what I did in the job I retired from. There I was the decision maker that approved any changes---here I sometimes don't even get to make a recommendation.
A big plus on this job is that I am getting to know a lot of really good equipment operators. I really respect the good operators because when I was trying to operate Cats and back hoes I never got to where I could really do a good job with them.
LIFE IS STARTING TO GET HECTIC!!!
