Resurfacing London Road South

Last week our road was resurfaced during the night. They began at 7pm - the boys' bedtime, and finished by 7am when I am usually, reluctantly, awake. The first night they took up the existing surface, the second night they paved a new one.



Gregor stayed up late to watch the the "digger men" the first night.



Here's the planer ripping up the surface and loading up the tipper truck.



Here's the paver getting a needed injection of new asphalt to continue past our house.



And finally, the roller irons out the last little bits.

don't know what it is about little boy but they love digging. We have some friends with 2.5 year old Vasek - he not only loves bulldozers but made a beeline for the gardening equipment when he was last here. We'll see what happens with james. Anyway lol h
