Digger

We never know from year to year how the snow pack in our beautiful mountains will effect the run-off in the stream by our home. 

We have had a few years when the culverts under our charming covered bridge can't handle the Spring run-off. We worry about flooding, especially on our street. 

So it was determined a larger concrete culvert had to be placed under the bridge. Construction crews tore down the bridge and have been excavating with heavy equipment or as Cash calls them, "Diggers." The new, larger culvert will allow water to flow under the road, without spilling over the banks. Hopefully no more worries about flooding. 

Cash loves watching the digger at work! The construction workers would come over and talk to us. They would tell Cash what they were doing and always commented on what a handsome boy he is. Then they would reluctantly say, "Well, I guess we have to get back to work!" The project is almost completed and the covered bridge will be rebuilt.
