Thank you for sharing this. Living across the US, I've never seen a high rise....much less one in progress! Great perspective...love the tulips.

Goddess...you are welcome and thank you for your comment.
havent you ever been to San Francisco? Pretty sure there are some tall ones there...
I have been to many a city...with hopefully many more to go...but I have never been anywhere quite like NYC. I am just lucky to live close enough to hop on a train and get there in a little over an hour.

Day 98.
I went to a small hydroelectric dam near me late yesterday afternoon.
With tougher security since 9/11 they dispatched a county deputy to check me out. He was real nice just wanted to check me out.

Water that was used for boating, fishing, power and habitat for various wildlife now heads on down river for another use elsewhere.

HOW TO GET 8 FLAT TIRES...ALL AT ONCE.
The Plan: Load #1 on #2 (humm, I already see a problem)
The Problem: Okay, now the truck can't pull the trailer.
Number One Son is "helping"...sure talking on the phone to his wife is a lot of help. But we did persuade him to go get this tractor and put us up to the road. (Problem must be the soft, wet ground..can't get any traction)...silly us.
Well, now the problem becomes very clear...hollow tires vs a zillion pound cat!
When it loaded, it broke the seals on all eight tires. It was pretty funny. (We have a service truck with a compressor, so it wasn't too big of a deal..weather was nice..finally...so we just enjoyed the time outside.
End of story. Couldn't get 2 of tires to take air, so just drove off with them flat and got 3 more flats on the way to it's destination..about 4 miles away>

Well, we not in the middle..we are in the Pacific Northwest...about 20 miles South of the Oregon border...in the middle of nowhere. Might as well have a sense of humor...because it's always something.
Today we're bootlegging two sections of a mobile home..that'll be another story, I'm sure.

Thank you.
I would have thought that many tires would distribute the load. That must be one HEAVY dozer!!!
