Asphalting the road.........

 On Thursday we had the top coat of asphalt (tarmac) put on the roads where we live.  It affected around 120 homes and we were given a couple of days notice.  It took all day to do the area and it was really quite interesting to watch what they were doing.  We of course were very close to the end.  The guys worked well together and each one knew what to do.  




 Now where the guy is standing on our grass that corner is an issue.  Every time it rains or they put the sprinklers on, we have a swimming pool there.  So it should be interesting to see where the water goes next time it rains.  We all think they put the drain in the wrong place.


This is supposed to last 25 years before it needs repaving. 
I stayed in all day, as I figured it was easier than parking my car elsewhere and walking........oh and you know me I am totally allergic to exercise....LOL
