Down the road from us, they are building some new apartments. We already know how it will affect our traffic patterns, and it’s no big deal.

The construction is literally a big deal, however. They are tying the new complex into our main lines; I’m sure this is standard. What’s big is what they are doing it with. This “ditch witch” stands a good 20′ high and has a blade that digs that far down into the ground through our limestone and other bedrock. It’s a beast.

It feels like we are the background to a new sci-fi movie on Mars. Anyone seen rover running around?
