I’m sorry for the poor quality of this image. It was taken with a phone at two in the morning through a screen. Why? Read on!
My neighbor seems to be a real do-it-your-self kind of guy. I don’t know what he was working on last evening. I do know that when returned home from work; he was digging in his front yard with a miniature excavator. I imagine he rented the machine so he could get the job done more quickly.
At about 9:00 PM I was saying to Genna that it was late in the evening to be running such noisy equipment and I hoped he planned to shut down soon. He didn’t.
As luck would have it my neighbor managed to strike a water pipe with the excavator’s bucket. Of course a real work crew had to come out and repair the damage. They made even more noise. I woke up at 1:45 AM due to a change in the sounds made by the machinery. I guess they had finished using the water pump to empty the crater. That uniform sound was replaced with that of a jack-hammer.
Way t o go neighborhood handyman. You kept the entire working class community up all night. I’m sure the city will bill you for the late night work crew.
Oh geez.
