Seriouser and Seriouser

Again very busy today despite the brief periods of rain. Excavation has begun in front of the Heights so the two dump trucks are trundling along the made-for-them road, taking turns in very orderly fashion. The drivers are dumping the dirt onto the floor of the depression where it is being spread and packed by the compacter. For this purpose two new paths have been cut toward the middle of the upper level down to the floor. Two sewer tops have arrived and by noon, one is in place at the east end of the depression. Blue pipes are also lined up at that end. Other trucks are arriving on the parking lot to carry off the tree remains that were collected from the Heights front a few days ago. By the end of the day the second sewer top is also in place and some of the blue pipes are gone, presumably buried. All, workers and site, are ready for a long weekend of rest.
