Nice, man.
Makes me sad too while the equipment I work around nowadays isn't anything special. Some of the stuff I get to see is.

Nice work bud, looking good! Stinks about the pics 
Have some demo Pics. My old company demoed UHs stadium so I had to run out there and get some pics and BS.
You can see in the last pic they put a bucket on my old shear machine. Looks like it has been taken care of so far.

Few few more.
Lindamood and JTB each had 1/2 the stadium to do since there where tight deadlines. Its pretty cutthroat in Houston guys don't screw around down here. Lindamood got a little taste they both started at the same time. You can see in the pics JTB was on their last section and Lindamood had little more then that. Lindamood has some nice iron and badass trucks. It was really strange to see a track loader on a site down here. Lindamood had one of theirs down here.

Great Demo Shots
Hey, Dozerboy:
John, you always get the best demo shots. Great to see you on here. These are awesome shots of the UH stadium coming down. Too bad you didn't get to do the job, but you got some great pics. Looks like a pretty old stadium too, must have been in bad shape.
Thanks for posting. What kinda stuff you up to these days, man?
Be well!

Environmental work and lots of it all over the state. Clean up contaminated soil, brush hogging super fund sites, pipeline removals all kinds of stuff.
There is lots of talk about what we are going to do with the Astrodome. I guess there is going to actually be a decision made soon. I hope they demo it that would be cool to see.

Demo Astrodome
That would be cool to see the Astrodome get demo'ed. Too bad you are not working demo any more, John, you would take some awesome pictures of the demolition work. Do you miss doing demo? Would be good for you to demo the astrodome, since you helped clear the way for the Petco in San Diego too. STill remember those stories about dropping the cars from the jaws of the excavators and the damage you did to the torey pines LOL.
Take it easy man. Good to hear from you.

Sounds like the Astrodome is going to live on... Darn.
A pond I've been working doing on the side.
It was dug, but the side where really steep and it wasn't very deep. So I made it deeper, built the slopes up, made the dam, and spillway. Don't mind the trash the land owner or old owner thought an unfinished pond was a good place to dump trash and concrete.
It was tight getting on the dam. Before this job I had no idea that a fully loaded ADT could side hill a 3:1 and not tip over. I had a talk with the driver after I have calmed down. He didn't do it again.

Few more I got a little stuck with the ADT. There was about 12' of silt on the end of the pond where we built the dam. My guess is that when the project of abandoned it was a bit deeper and silted in. There was a find line between building the dam and loosing something into the muck.
Third pic: As you can see my guys are well trained...
There is a "Creek" that flows through the pond. We had to divert it to finish the dam and spillway. Pretty water

First: Building the spillway
Second: Well after a few week of no rain the creek ran dry. In order to save a few $$ the land owner returned the 6" pump we where using. This was a few days later. You can see the top of a small dam in the middle right of the pic. The area above that was suppose to flood, but give us enough time to finish our work. In the area just this side of that dam the water is 10' deep.
The rest of the pics are of after we pumped the water down and finished the spillway. The last pic is the pond almost full.

Wow! I've seen the progress on your project. Good job Dozerboy!
Time to get this thing back to the top.
The kind of stuff I get to play with now. Yummy...
Yep we got a few of those 228 to be exact...
Dang there is some more.....
This is a wast oil site we have been contracted to clean up. Equipment break downs and ETC caused them to get over their heads in product.

Not the same product, but similar.
I load this in to a conveyer that "delumps" and runs it up into these trucks. Which in turn haul it to be burned.
A baby dredge. Used to remove 8' of sentiment in some ponds.
Filling some low spots in a dike

Can you say where this project was at? The area looks familiar.

Some of them where in Houston, but once you've seen one plant you've seen them all.
