Anybody else ever notice that when it gets hot and sticky the bloody rocks all get HEAVIER? It was about 90 today, and very humid, with an ozone warning… And some dummy was out in it pretending he was a dump truck! I still need to go after about 3 more loads, but the hardest part is almost done – I hope… Tunnel #2 at hitch gap was the big project for today. If the ground is solidly covered with rocks (over cinder blocks), then I won’t have to MOW it anymore, right? I’m hoping it looks close enough to a cliff overhanging the water to justify the tunnel.
The rock facing on the big fill got extended a little more. I still have about 8 feet to go.
The short Monday evening mixed train starts for home after delivering a small load of supplies for the mine, and dropping off the night shift.
Mixed train rollin’ out of Tunnel #1 and drifting into town with tired miners going home from their day’s labors.
The restored station at Kimberly. If you look close, you can still see some giant damage.
That’s all for today. Tomorrow evening I get to go after MORE rocks.
