Good-bye Garages!!

The time has come to get rid of the 3 garage monster to make room for the new one. Trev had some fun with demolishing before Gene got started with the track hoe.

He used the track hoe from Hoogendoorn Construction.




Trev and I stood and watched- he captured the whole thing on video on his new gaming system. Maybe if I'm tech-savvy enough, I can put that on the blog sometime- hee hee.










 The whole process took less than a half hour. The last of it came down with quite a crash! It was rather fun to watch.



Then he scooped it all on to piles and smashed it down and we started the fire and slowly fed it. We had to be careful that the whole thing didn't burn at once since it was close to the house and the vinyl siding would melt.



There were some water line repairs and capping to be done. Ty even had  a chance to run the equipment.   

The next morning Gene loaded up the cement foundation and footings and hauled it away.

I haven't taken a picture yet of the big empty space- maybe tomorrow.
