Hard to believe, we've been back almost a year now. We've done lots of projects around the house, I've organized the place, cleaned up and hey, even found a job. The one thing that has always been a bother to Tony and I is the rock that takes up valuable parking space in our driveway. Persistence does pay off. I finally found someone who was adept in getting that rock out of the driveway. What the heck, we decided to remove all the rocks on the property. In particular, there is a rock that sits in the driveway straddling the space between my driveway and my neighbors. This past winter proved to be pretty hair raising. If we skidded, we would hit that monster rock going down the driveway and cause mega dollars worth of damage to the car. Nope. That's it... no more. All the rocks have to go.Today was the day of reckoning. Mr. Roboto, the machine came with two other huge pieces of excavation machinery up the driveway. The rock that defeated the last contractor, was gone in a mere 20 minutes. Shows you all you need to have is the right equipment. Mr. Roboto was a 40,000 pound jackhammering machine that pulverized everything. Nothing could stand in its way. Once that persistent rock was taken out, Rob our new contractor proceeded to work on all the other rocks in the driveway. 7 hours later, 150 tons of rock (now pulverized) were driven off the property. What a beautiful sight to have the rocks gone. We'll have so much more parking once I get the paving company to come and do its job.
