The old antique store on Park Avenue is being demolished. Well, it is already leveled - they started tearing it down a couple weeks ago. Now they are working on the footers and the slab. I've been watching them everyday! Lucky for me they are working right next door to our office :)
Well, the other morning Bob let me 'work' the excavater - it was the coolest! Soooo- I'm thinking, if you can't sell them, you might as well tear them down, haha. Just kidding!
It was alot of fun to work the bucket - and swing the doo dad, lol. - yeah - I don't get real technical.
Here is the site:
taking down the old antique store. Their new location is on Laurens Street - just around the corner.
This machine in the picture above is pretty big. Now look at it in the picture below next to the even bigger machine, lol
This is what I got to drive! The BIG ONE! The JCB. OMG!! When you turn the key on - you can feel the power all the way from your toes right up to the top of your head :) It was amazing - I want to do it again. (and Bob said I could, lol)
This machine is so big that I needed a 'step up' just to reach the 'step up', lol. They pulled out a piece of rubble and I used it like a mounting block for a horse, haha. I wasn't sure I could get up there with this gall bladder pain but Bob and Robert were very helpful! Thanks guys :)
As soon as Bob and his sons are done with the demo, the next crew will come in and this is what they are going to build:
