Wouldn't fancy pulling the stick on that 320 every morning Teeth

Why is "phonetically" spelt with a "ph"?

The complex of Newgrange was originally built between c. 3100 and 2900 BC,[2] meaning that it's aproximately 5,000 years old. According to Carbon-14 dates,[3] it is more than 500 years older than the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt, and predates Stonehenge by about 1,000 years.

You must be out on Western Wake. That's a big job, about 450 mil, we're doing the asphalt paving on it. Is it in full swing yet? I know the bond sales delayed the start date but can't remember when they got started with the actual clearing and earthmoving.

Yep this is the 540 Extension project. Looks like they are starting to work pretty good on it. There's a ton of bridges that have to be built and not a whole heck of a lot of grading.

I don't think they will bring the Cat 5110 hoe out for this section like they did on the last 7 mile part.

I have not seen any cut or fills over 20 foot or so.

To say the least! It looks like the perfect project from an equipment point of view. Keep us updated!
