Pics of my day job....

[Chris]

Some say I do some interesting work. I am an underground utility/ General Engineering Contractor. My company installs just about everything that gets buried in the end so I figured I would share some pics of some of the stuff I have done. If you have any questions feel free to ask away.

Great pics, interesting and important work for sure!

Be real careful Chris around all those big toys you got there.

There is something neat about digging a hole in the ground that stays with you no matter how old you get. Am I right?

I bet you can find some weird things out there.

It's been dead here for several years.
