They Dug Up The Street
When we moved into the house, there were utility locates all over. Paint and flags and such. They dug up a few places at either end of the street, did their work and then left, never digging up where they had marked on our property. A week later, the "Road Closed" signs went up at both ends of our street. This was like, June. And nothing happened. We were wondering if we got away easy. Until last week. Suddenly we are a hive of activity. The first day, they dug up all the sod along the street. They put up temporary mail boxes at both ends of the street, and the post office left us a notice about where to go to get mail, and that packages would be held at the PO. Now the pavement is completely gone. As time has gone by this week, the construction zone has gotten more and more torn up. Pipes laid out everywhere. Giant concrete culverts are stacked along the way. Man holes sticking up with traffic cones on them. Those giant steel plate ditch-shoring boxes
